Capo 4th fret G Whose garden was this? C Am It must have been lovely. D Did it have flowers? Bm I've seen pictures of flowers, C Em And I'd love to have smelled one.

Whose river was this?
You say it ran freely?
Blue was its color?
I've seen blue in some pictures,
And I'd love to have been there.


G Tell me again, I need to know. C Am D The forest had trees, the meadows were green, Em D The oceans were blue, and birds really flew - C B7 Em D G Can you swear that is true?

Whose gray sky was this?
Or was it a blue one?
You say there were breezes?
I've heard records of breezes,
And I'd love to have felt one.

Whose forest was this?
And why is it empty?
You say there were bird songs,
And squirrels in the branches,
And why is it silent?

Tell me again, I need to know.
The forest had trees, the meadows were green,
The oceans were blue, and birds really flew -
Can you swear that is true?

Whose garden was this?
It must have been lovely.
Did it have flowers?
I've seen pictures of flowers,
And I'd love to have smelled one.


G Tell me again, I need to know! Em G Tell me again, I need to know! Em G Tell me again, I need to know! Em G Em D Tell me again, I need to know!

(Words and music by Tom Paxton, 1970)
