"EDEN WAS A GARDEN" by Roman Candle

[C]There's a pine warbler [Am7]sitting on a hollow limb
he s[Em]eems to have the whole morning o[F]ut right in front of him
and ev[C]erything he sings from the br[Am7]anch that he's sitting on
se[Fmaj7]ems to hush the leaves and the c[F]olors all around
First he s[C]ings and then he g[G]oes.
and what i[C]t means? It's hard[G] to know.

[C]Baby works down right [Am7]off of Barbur Blvd
W[Em]rites down everything on th[F]e back of a business card
e[C]verything she writes will [Am7]turn into a song or two
she [Fmaj7]puts it on the stage[F] and all goes still
now if she si[C]ngs a forest cl[G]ear
she puts a tr[C]ee right in your[G] ear.
[F]Now why can't you [C]stay with me?
[F]Why don't you tell me it cause it [C]makes a fo[E7]ol of m[F]e
Well E[F]den was a ga[C]rden you know
the [D]birds were in the trees until the [D]place was gone
they sca[D]ttered to the wind and then they j[D]ust kept moving on
[C] [Csus2] [C] [Csus2]
[C]Just the other night the cl[Am7]ocks were moving awful slow
I [Em]heard a woman's voice coming up[F] from the street below
I [C]got up from my bed that s[Am7]ong was so enrapturing
and[Fmaj] found my real to reel just to s[F]ee if I could capture -
by the t[C]ime i turned it [G]on, and turned an e[C]ar
that voice was go[G]ne.
[F]Now why can't it st[C]ay with me?
[F]Why don't you say it cause it m[C]akes a f[E7]ool of m[F]e
Well E[F]den was a ga[C]rden you know
the bi[D]rds were in the trees until the p[D]lace was gone
they scatt[D]ered to the wind and then they ju[D]st kept moving on
