Verse:
Ive been wanEdering East oC#mf Eden
Been lA6ost, cold, lonesome as a Bsparrow in the rain
I found Emyself tumbling tC#mo a sinking feeling
When somA6eone said I done gone wrong
BCouldn't feel no shame 
I'll bEe leaving town on the E7very next train
You can waAit for me little girl
But I Amwon't be coming this way again
                E      C#m        A6     B       E  E/Eb9  
And  it ain't nobody's business if I do 
Verse 2:
There's a slow train ruEmbling east of a place called C#mEden
Ah, the wiA6nd blowing in proud as the trBees upon the plain
And a stranger's voEice talked to me of liberty and C#mfreedom
Yeah, it A6seems like he done gone wrong again
BAnd he wears the hat like shame
Well he    Etasted the frE7uit of another
And Awhen his Margie, when Amshe discovered
Said she's gonEna love him ten tC#mimes more
                       A6     B       E  E/          Eb9  
Ain't nobody's business if she do 
Verse 3:
He said E"some men born rich, sC#mome men born poor
A6But they're rich in other ways"
BInto my heart his wisdom poured
It's no good cruEmblin, I'm making tracks C#mto live
When I A6laid my love down in the light
BYou should've seen all the things my shadow did 
  EThe filth and the fury, the fE7ear and the pain
AIt's all disappearing now
AmFaster than the smoke from this old train
And Eit ain't noC#mbody's busiA6ness iBf it dEo

E C#m

Ive been wandering East of Eden

I found myself tumbling to a sinking feeling

You can wait for me little girl

But I won't be coming this way again

Verse 2:

E C#m

There's a slow train rumbling east of a place called Eden

A6 B

Ah, the wind blowing in proud as the trees upon the plain

E C#m

And a stranger's voice talked to me of liberty and freedom

Yeah, it seems like he done gone wrong again

And he wears the hat like shame

E E7

Well he tasted the fruit of another

A Am

And when his Margie, when she discovered

E C#m

Said she's gonna love him ten times more

A6 B E E Eb9

Ain't nobody's business if she do

When I laid my love down in the light

You should've seen all the things my shadow did

Faster than the smoke from this old train

E C#m A6 B E

And it ain't nobody's business if it do
