 The rest of the song pretty much repeats the intro
 with just a few minor changes to the strumming pattern,
 I wrote in where the chords change over lyrics,
 so jus listen to the song for strumming pattern, its not hard.
 Ive been wandering  East of  Eden
 Been lost,  cold, lonesome as a  sparrow in the rain
 I found myself  tumbling to  a sinking feeling
 When someone  said I done gone wrong
Couldn't  feel no shame
 I'll be  leaving town on the very  next train
 You can wait  for me little girl
 But I  won't be coming this way again
 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
 Well he  tasted the fruit  of another
 And when  his Margie, when  she discovered
 Said she's gonna  love him ten times  more
 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
 The filth and the fury, the fear  and the pain
It's  all disappearing now
Faster  than the smoke from this old train
 And  it ain't nobody's  business  if  it do
 One more time:  ain't nobody's  business if  it do

Ive been wan[E]dering East o[C#m]f Eden
Been l[A6]ost, cold, lonesome as a[B] sparrow in the rain
I found [E]myself tumbling t[C#m]o a sinking feeling
When som[A6]eone said I done gone wrong
[B]Couldn't feel no shame
I'll b[E]e leaving town on the [E7]very next train
You can wa[A]it for me little girl
But I[Am] won't be coming this way again
And [E] it ain't nob[C#m]ody's b[A6]usiness [B]if I[E] do   [E]     [Eb9]

There's a slow train ru[E]mbling east of a place called[C#m] Eden
Ah, the wi[A6]nd blowing in proud as the tr[B]ees upon the plain
And a stranger's vo[E]ice talked to me of liberty and[C#m] freedom
Yeah, it [A6]seems like he done gone wrong again
[B]And he wears the hat like shame

Well he [E]   tasted the fr[E7]uit of another
And [A]when his Margie, when[Am] she discovered
Said she's gon[E]na love him ten t[C#m]imes more
Ain't nobody's busin[A6]ess i[B]f sh[E]e do  [E]    [Eb9]

He said[E] "some men born rich, s[C#m]ome men born poor

It's no good cru[E]mblin, I'm making tracks [C#m]to live
When I [A6]laid my love down in the light
[B]You should've seen all the things my shadow did

[E]  The filth and the fury, the f[E7]ear and the pain
[A]It's all disappearing now

One more time: [E]   ain't n[C#m]obody's business [B]if it [E]do    [E]      [Eb9]
