Graves Into Gardens is an awesome high-energy worship song by Elevation Worship and Brandon Lake. It works great as an opener or a 2nd song in a set. It’s in 6/8 time and original in the key of B, which is pretty high for a male vocalist. In our resources we demonstrate how to play in the key of G, which is a lot easier to sing. If you want to play along with the album version, just use a capo on the 4th fret of your guitar.
