"She Wandered Through The Garden Fence"
(Gary Brooker - Keith Reid)
Intro:
(drum beat, 2 bars)
Verse 1:
G
Bm/F#
She wandered through
the garden fence
G7/F
C
Said I've brought at
great expense
(C)
F
A potion guaranteed to
bring
G
Relief from all your
suffering
[2: And] though I
said you don't exist
She grasped me firmly
by the wrist
Threw me down upon my
back
Strapped me to her
torture rack
G7
C
And without further
argument
Am
D7sus4 D7
I found my mind was
also bent
G7 C
Upon a course so
devious
Am D7sus4
D7
It only made my
torment worse
Verse 2:
She said I see you
cannot speak
Is it your voice that
is too weak
Is it your tongue that
is to blame
Maybe you cannot speak
for shame
Or has your brain been
idle too
Now it will not think
for you
I hastened to make my
reply
Found that I could
only lie
[3: And] Like a
fool I believed myself
And thought I was
somebody else
She could see what I
was then
And left me on my own
again
