(ver. 2)
Joanna Newsom
[Verse A]
 Dm5              Bb5                 F5       C5
I found a little plot of land in the garden of Eden
       Dm5               Bb5    F5    C5
It was dirt and dirt is all the same
    Dm5              Bb5             F5          C5
I tilled it with my two hands and I called it my very own
       Dm5               Bb5    D* C* D*
There was no one to dispute my claim

[Verse B]
        F                      C
Well, you'd be shocked at the state of things
           Dm              Bb          C
The whole place had just cleared right out
       Dm           Bb     F            C
It was hotter'n Hell so I laid me by a spring
       Dm            Bb    Dm   D* C* D*  
For a spell as naked as a trout

[Instrumental]
Bb    F    C    Dm
Bb    Dm C Dm

[Veese B]
     F                 C
The wandering eye that I have caught
      Dm         Bb      C
Is as hot as a wandering sun
   Dm               Bb                  F       C
But I will want for nothing more in my garden, start again
       Dm                 Bb       Dm  D* C* D*
In my hardening to every heart but one

[Verse A]
Dm5            Bb5        F5             C5        
Meet me in the garden of Eden, bring a friend
Dm5                Bb5        F5    C5
We are gonna have ourselves a time
Dm5           Bb5           F5             C5
We are gonna have a garden party, it's on me
Dm5            Bb5     Dm5
No, siree, it's my dime

[Verse B]
    F                       C
We broke our hearts in the war between
     Dm            Bb  C
St. George and the dragon
    Dm              Bb      F           C
But both in equal parts are welcome to come along
Dm             Bb    Dm  D* C* D*
I'm inviting everyone

[Instrumental]
Bb    F    C    Dm
Bb    Dm C Dm

[Verse B]
     F                C
Farewell to loves that I have known
     Dm        Bb      C
Even muddiest waters run
            Dm            Bb      F                    C
Tell me what is meant but sin or none in a garden, seceded
Dm                   Bb        Dm
From the union in the year of A.D.1?

[Verse B]
      F        C            Bb
The unending amends you've made
        Dm         Bb       C
Are enough for one life be done
  Dm             Bb             F         C              
I believe in innocence, little darlin', start again
Dm             Bb    Dm  D* C* 
I believe in everyone

[Outro ? slower]
C5  Dmadd11 Bbadd13  F
I       bel ? i ? eve, 
  C
Regardless, I
Dm         Bb   Dm  Dm C Dm
Believe in everyone
