I've been wandering East of Eden
F#m7
B
Been lost, cold, lonesome as a sparrow in the rain
E
C#7#9
I found myself tumbling to a sinking feeling
F#m7
B
When someone said I done gone wrong, but I couldn't feel no shame
E
E7
I'll be leaving town on the very next train
A
Am
Don't wait for me little girl, I won't be coming this way again
E
C#7#9
F#m7
B
E
Emaj9
And it ain't nobody's business if I do
There's a slow train rumbling east of a place called Eden Ah, the wind blowing in proud as the trees upon the plain 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#7#9
Said she's gonna love him ten times more
F#m7
B
E
Emaj9
Ain't nobody's business if she do
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', I'm making tracks to live When I laid my love down in the light, you should've seen all the things my shadow did
E
E7
The filth and the fury, the fear and the pain
A
Am
It's all disappearing now, faster than the smoke from this old train
E
C#7#9
F#m7
B
E
And it ain't nobody's business if it do

One more time: ain't nobody's business if it do
