Garden In The Rain

Words & Music by Carroll Gibbons & James Dyrenforth
Recorded by Frank Sinatra, 1960


 A    Cdim E7  A    Bm7-5     A7
'Twas just a garden in  the rain

 D   Cdim  C#m7-5        F#7
Close to a little leafy lane,

D Bm7-5 E7  A      F#m  Bm7-5 E7  A    F#m  D  Cdim  E7
A touch of color 'neath skies of gray.


A   Cdim    E7    A         Bm7-5   A7 
The rain - drops kissed the flower beds;

D   Cdim     C#m7-5               F#7
The blossoms raised their thirsty heads.

D Bm7-5     E7         Bm7-5 Cdim      A
A perfumed "Thank you" they seemed to say.


Bridge:

 G#m7           C#m     G#m7     Cdim(IV) G#m7 C#m
Surely here was charm beyond com - pare   to  view;

G#m7  Bm7-5    A       G#m7   C#m   G#7   E7
Maybe  it was just that I was there with you.


 A    Cdim E7  A   Bm7-5     A7
'Twas just a garden  in the rain,

D   Cdim     C#m7-5         F#7
But then the sun came out again

D   Bm7-5    E7    Bm7-5 Cdim  A
And sent us happily  on  our  way.
