[Intro 1]
[D][Em][A][D][Em][A][D][C][D][Bm][Bb][G][Abdim][G]
[D][Em][A][D][Em][A][D][C][G][Bb][G][Bm]
[G]Once[D]

[Verse 1]
upon a time,
[Em]mankind [A]was all [D]just a bunch of apes[Em].[A]
We [D]all had furs and we [G]all ate steak[Bb]s
[G]An [Bdim]d the w[G]hole world[D]
was para[Bm]dise [Em]and we didn[A]'t
even know [D]it
Then we got [Em]self [A]-aware
and boy [D]did we blow
it
[G]You [Bb]see [G]we w[D]ere all
living in[G]side of [Em]the
Garden
[A]of
Eden
Until [D]we started eating of the
Tree [Em]of
Knowledge
[A]We [D]cre[C]ate[G]d l[Bb]ace [A]and [G]un[D]derwear to[Em][A]
replace [D]the leaves and sticks stra[Em]tegic[A]ally placed to
[D]fix our newfound nud
[G]ity.[Bb][G][Bdim][Bm][D]
[G]Wel[F#]l the
Garden of
Eden's got beans, got [B]granny smiths and reds,
but it's [E]got no place to
hide your face,
no [A]bank to hide your debts.
[F#]Could it be that here and now is
the [B]only heaven we've got?
Or [E]could it be that the knowledge tree is [A]buried beneath the
parking [D]lot?[Em][A][D][Em][A][D][C][G][Bb][G]
[Bdim][G]
So [D]we created [Em]fires, [A]and walls,
[D]and concert halls t[Em]o hea[A]r divine h[D]armo[G]ny.[Bb][G][Bm][G][Bm][Fdim]
[G]These [D]halls, called churches,
[Em]were part [A]of mankind's searc[D]hes for the earth as it was[Em][A]
The
[D]Earth
God [C]created [G]an d called [Bb]good.[G]
But [D]this paradise, it could not [Em]be f[A]ound,
Not in the [D]sky, nor underground.
[E]Man[A] search[D]ed the
[C]Earth [Abdim]far and wide,[Bb]
But he still had [G]yet [Bdim]to sear[D]ch inside.
[G]So [D]pilgrims went west
[Bm]when [A]things went to pot,
But [D]damn it all if they forgot,
[Em]If y[A]ou keep he[D]ading
[C]west [D]around [Bm]the globe,
You [Bdim]end up i[G]n [D]the same[G] spo[D]t.[G][D]
[Em]So w[A]hat now?[D]
[Em]Well, [A]we're her[D]e,
[C]and [D]that's [Bm]that.[Bb][G][Bm]
[G]An d as [D]for me, [Bm]I'd like to be a[A]n ape again, b[D]ut I'm allergic to s[Em]teak[A],
an[D]d my b[C]eard's too t[G]hin.[Bb][Gm][Bb][G][Bm]
[G]Well, [F#]the
Garden of
Eden's got buildings,
got [B]rings, smiths, and rags
But it's [E]got no place to hide your face
and no [A]bank to hide your debts
[F#]Could it be that here and now is
the [B]only heaven we've got?
Or [E]could it be that the
Knowledge
Tree is [A]buried beneath the
Parking
[D]Lot?[Em][A][D][Em][A][D]
