East Of Eden

Intro:     Am   G    F    Am   G    F

Am              G                     F
I feel the way the wind blows    it tells me where you've been through
Am              G                     F
I watch the way the sun sets     until the night's inside you

Am         G          Am       F
Some days I just don't worry I let it walk through me
Am         G          Am         F
Some days I need to bury the very depths of me
Am              G               F
So out here to the east of Eden I let salvation be

C          F                     Am         G
I was waiting I was watching          Would it ever be before me
C               F
And I found that hope and a lucky card
Am         G          Am              F
Were all I had to walk with me (had to walk with me)

I watch the way the crow flies   I know it always seems so easy
But if I see it in a grey sky         Can I be sure about the way it leads me?

Some days I just don't worry I let it walk through me
Some days I call upon the very depths of me
So out here to the east of Eden I watch your soul run free

I was waiting I was watching          Would it ever be before me
And I found that hope and a lucky card
Were all I had to walk with me                              (repeat x2)

Am                               G
Some days will stay a thousand years  Some pass like the flash of a spark
Am                               F
Who knows where all our days go      
Am                               G
Out here we lie together              Outside the thunder gathers
Am                               F               Am
Why care about the weather            It always ends in dark

 

I looked west in search of freedom and I saw slavery
I looked east in search of answers and I saw misery

Some days I just don't worry I let it walk through me
Some days I walk into the very depths of me
So out here to the east of Eden I let my conscience be

I was waiting I was watching          Would it ever be before me
And I found that hope and a lucky card
Were all I had to walk with me
