I tried

G                  D
I was just in the way

Bm               G
Down there with nothing
         D
There I will stay
Bm         G
Oh, down there
         D
There I will stay

Silver in your eyes
Gold is in your hair
I know, I'm alive
So I just sit and stare

Sleep in the morning
Sleep all day
Down in the garden
There I will stay

Oh, so quiet
Everyone's asleep
The blue of the moon
Lights me on my feet

Down in the garden
There I will stay
Oh, down there
There I will stay

Oh, down in the garden
There I will stay
