[C#5]i wi[F5]ll sail to the far shore,
[D#5]and [F#5]i will chop a hole in the hull too big to repair,
[C#5]and [F5]i will turn the soil with my hands,
[D#5]and [F#5]i will make my home there.
[C#5]my g[G#5]arde[C#5]n wi[F#5]ll grow so high.
[C#5]my g[G#5]arde[C#5]n wi[F#5]ll grow so high.
[C#5]that[G#5] i will be completely hidden.

i will go where i will go,
and i will jettison all dead weight,
and i will use these words for kindling,
and i will sleep by the garden gate.
my garden will grow so high.
my garden will grow so high.
that i will be completely hidden.
