In my garden

Set on fire 
Dm                 Am 
And I found Jesus  what a liar 
Dm                    Am 
So I trade licks with Muddy Waters 


C                     F 
And I  I found what's best for me 
C               F 
And I  I see no tragedy 
C                     F 
And I  well I found a burning rose  
C                Dm 
And I  I think I know  know what that means 
               Am 
Just what that means
