[Dm] I found a [Bb] little plot of land in the [F] garden of [C] Eden
It was [Dm] dirt and dirt [Bb] is all [C] the same
[Dm] I tilled it with [Bb] my two hands and I called it [C] my very own
There was [Dm] no one [Bb] to dispute [Dm] my claim
[F] Well you'd be shocked at [C] the state of things
The [G] whole [Dm] place [Bb] had just cleared right [C] out
It [Dm] was hot in here [Bb]
so [F] I laid me [C] by the spring
[Dm] For as bad as naked [Bb]
as a cloud

[F] The wandering life [C] that I have caught
Is [Dm] as hard as [Bb] a wandering [C] son
[Dm] But I will want [Bb] for nothing [F] in my garden
Start again [Dm] in my heart and in you [E] every heart but one

[Dm] Meet me in [Bb] the garden
[F] [C] Bring a friend [Dm] we are gonna [Bb] have ourself [C] a time

It's a me [Dm] no sirree [Bb] it's my [Dm] dime
[F] We broke our hearts in [C] the war between
Saint [Dm] George [Bb] and the [C] dragon
[Dm] But both in equal [Bb]

To come [Dm] along I'm inviting [Bb]

[F] The hour [C] of [Dm] the moon [E]
may dawn
[Dm] And not a [Bb] one line [C] be done
