Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D][Dm][F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Of [G]war
and peace [Dm]the truth just twists
Its [C]curfew [F]gull just [G]glides[C][G]
Upon four- legged [Dm]forest clouds
[F]The cowboy angel [G]rides[C][G]
With his candle [Bm]lit in
[Am]to t[G]he sun
Though its glow [Am]is waxed i[C]n black[G][D]
[G]All ex[Bb]cept [Gm]when 'neath
the [Am]trees of [G]Eden[C][G]

[Verse 2]
[G]
The lamppost stands with fol[Dm]ded arms
It[F]s iron claws att[G]ached[C][G]
To curbs 'neath holes where
[Dm]ba bies wail
Though it [F]shadows metal [G]badge
All and [D]all [Am]can only fall[G]
[Am]With a crashing but meaningless
[C]blo[D]w
[G]No sound ever [Gm]comes [Am]from the
Gates of Eden
[G][C][G]

[Verse 3]
The savage soldier [Dm]stick
s his head [F]in sand
And then [G]complain[C]s[G]
Unto the shoeless [Dm]hunter
who's gone [F]deaf
But still re[G]mains
Upon [D]the beach [Bm]where hound[Am] dogs bay[G]
At [Am]ships with tattooed [C]sails[D]
[G]Heading [Bb]for [Am]the Gates of
[G]Eden[C][G]
[C][G][F][D]

[Verse 4]
With [G]a time- rusted com[Dm]pass blade
[F]Aladdin and his [G]lamp[C][G]
Sits with Uto[Dm]pian hermit monks
Side [F]saddle on the Golden [G]Calf
And on their promises of [Bm]paradise
[Am]You will not hear a [C]laugh[D]
[G]All ex[Bb]cept in[Am]side the Gates

[Interlude 1]
of Eden
[G][C][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]Relationships of [Dm]ownership
[F]They whisper in the wing
[G]s[C][G][C][F][G]
To those condemned to act ac[Dm]cordingly
And [F]wait for succeeding [G]kings[C][G]
And I try to [Bm]har mon[Am]ize
[G]with songs
[Am]The lonesome sparrow [C]sings[D]
There [G]are no [Bb]kings [Gm]in si[Bb]de the
[Am]Gates of [G]Eden[C]
[G]

[Verse 6]
The motorcycle [Dm]black Madonna
[F]Two- wheeled gypsy [G]queen
And her silver- studded
[Dm]phantom cause
[F]The gray flannel dwarf [G]to scream
As he weeps to wicked [Am]birds [G]of prey
Who pick up on his [D]bread [Am]crumb[C] sins
[D]And there [G]are no [Gm]sins in[Dm]side[Bb]
[Am]the Gates of [G]Eden[C]

[Interlude 2]
[G][C][G][C][F][G][D]

[Verse 7]
The [G]kingdoms of ex[Dm]perience
In the pre[F]cious wind [G]they [C]rot[G][F][D]
While [G]paupers change pos[Dm]ses [D]sions
[Dm]Each[D] one wishi[F]ng for what
the other has [G]got[C][G][F][D]
And [G]the princess an[Bm]d the[Am] prince
Dis[G]cuss [Am]what's real and what is [C]not[D]
It [G]doesn't [Gm]matter [Bb]in s[Am]ide

[Interlude 3]
the Gates of Eden
[G][C][G][F][D]

[Verse 8]
The [G]foreign sun, it [Dm]squints upon
A [F]bed that is never [G]mine[C][G][F][D]
As [G]friends and other [F]strangers
From their fates try to [G]resign[C][G]
Leaving men [Bm]wholly, [Am]totally [G]free
To do [D]anything they [Am]wish
to do [C]but [D]die
And there [G]are no [Bb]tri als ins[Am]ide
the Gates [D]of [Dm]Eden

[Interlude 4]
[G][C][G][C][G][F][D]

[Verse 9]
[G]At dawn my lover [Dm]comes to me
[F]And tells me of her [G]dream[C]s[G]
With no attempts to [Dm]shovel the glimpse
In[F]to the ditch of what
each one [G]means[C][G]
At times I [Bm]think there [Am]are no word[G]s
But [Am]these to tell what's [C]true[D]
And there [G]are no [Bb]truths
outside [Am]the Gates of [G]Eden
