i was a troubled teen,
untroubled only in my day dreams,
to the annoyance of someone or other,
They doubted my philosophy and this is what they said to me
oh you your right where you belong
But its blood from broken hearts that write the words to every song
a beautific smile, for all the sinners
i only i only i,
i see the serpent
oh you your green
you dont no wat love means
well let me tell you,
it tickes you pink oh yeah it likes to hear you scream,
fire an damn nation, lamntation.

shall i kill you like you asked me to?
If you?re still alive
when you?re 25
shall i kill you like you told me to
But i really don?t want to.

Are you still shaking out
all of your deadwood from your bed, love.
Well times don?t change.
Are you still thinking of
All those pretty rhymes for love divines.
Oh no you really dont have to.

If you?re still alive
When you?re 25.
Shall i kill you like you asked me to?

If you?re still alive
when you?re 25
shall i kill you like you told me to?
But i really don?t want to.

I rememeber every single thing you said to me
You played the man in the calvary
You said new love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows on...
New love grows on...
trees.

East of Eden:
           E                 C#
I've been wandering east of Eden
      F#7                                    B7
Been lost, cold, lonesome as a sparrow in the rain
                   E                    C#
I found myself tumbling to a sinking feeling oh lor
            F#7
When someone said I done gone wrong,
                    B7
i dont feel no shame

          E                  E7
I'll be leaving town on the very next train
        A
dont wait for me little girl,
                Am
cause I won't be coming this way again
      E       C#        F#7         B7
And it ain't nobody's business if I do

There's a slow train rumblin' east of a place called Eden
feel wind blowin' in proud as the trees upon the plain
a stranger's voice talked to me
Of liberty and freedom
It seems like he done gone wrong again
to a girl wears the hat like shame

Well he tasted the fruit of another
And when his margy when she discovered
Said she's gonna love him ten times more
Ain't nobody's business if she do

(eh what id she say to him
He said 'some men born rich, some men born poor,
But they're rich in other ways'
Into my heart his wisdom poured

It's no good crumblin, making tracks to live
Wel I laid my love down in the light
but should've seen all the things my shadow did

The filth and the fury, the fear and the pain
It's all disappearing now faster than the smoke from this old train
And it ain't nobody's business if it do
(one more time)
Ain't nobody's business if it do
