Verse 1:
 Cm       Ab
I found a little plot of land
    Eb    Bb
In the garden of Eden
    Cm         Ab    Bb
It was dirt, and dirt is all the same
 Cm       Ab
I tilled it with my two hands
  Eb     Bb
And I called it my very own;
     Cm      Ab     Cm (Bb Cm)
There was no-one to dispute my claim

Chorus 1:
   Eb
Well, you'd be shocked
    Gm
At the state of things
     Cm
The whole place
     Ab        Bb
Had just cleared right out
    Cm      Ab
It was hotter than hell
   Eb      Bb      Cm
So I laid me by a spring, for a spell
     Ab    Cm (Bb Cm)
As naked as a trout

Meet me in the garden of Eden

Bring a friend

We are gonna have ourselves a time

We are gonna have a garden party

No, sirree, it's my dime

Chorus 2:
  Eb
We broke our hearts
    Gm
In the war between
  Cm     Ab   Bb
St. George and the dragon
  Cm       Ab
But both, in equal part
  Eb     Bb
Are welcome to come along
Cm      Ab   Cm (Bb Cm)
I'm inviting everyone

  Eb         Gm
Farewell to loves that I have known
   Cm    Ab   Bb
Even muddiest waters run

But I believe in innocence, little darling
Bb
Start again
Cm      Ab   Cm (Bb Cm)
I believe in everyone
