The lamppost stands with folded arms

To curbs 'neath holes where babies wail

With a crashing but meaningless blow
                  G                              Bb                                 C                    G      C/G    G    C/G    G  
And no sound at all comes from the Gates of Eden

At ships with tattooed sails
G                 Bb              C                    G      C/G    G    C/G    F    G  
Heading for the Gates of Eden
G                                              Dm  
With a time-rusted compass blade

Aladdin and his lamp
G                                            Dm  
Sits with Utopian hermit monks
             F                                 C              G  
Side saddle on the Golden Calf
G                                            Bm            Am    G  
And on their promises of paradise

You will not hear a laugh

All except inside the Gates of Eden
G                                         Dm  
Relationships of ownership
             F                 C              G              C/G    G  
They whisper in the wings
G                                                      Dm  
To those condemned to act accordingly
          F                    C                         G  
And wait for succeeding kings
G                              Bm         Am                 G  
And I try to harmonize with songs
          Am                                      C                 D  
The lonesome sparrow sings
G                                              Bb                      C                    G      C/G    G    C/G    F    G  
There are no kings inside the Gates of Eden
G                                    Dm  
The motorcycle black Madonna
          F                 C            G            C/G    G  
Two-wheeled gypsy queen
G                                                         Dm  
And her silver-studded phantom cause
          F                              C                    G  
The gray flannel dwarf to scream
G                                    Bm            Am                 G  
As he weeps to wicked birds of prey
          Am                                                                 C                 D  
Who pick up on his bread crumb sins
G                                                      Bb                      C                    G         C/G  G  C/G  F  G  
And there are no sins inside the Gates of Eden
G                                      Dm  
The kingdoms of experience
                  F                    C                         G            C/G    G  
In the precious winds they rot
G                                                    Dm  
While paupers change possessions
                          F                                                 C                      G  
Each one wishing for what the other has got
G                            Bm      Am              G  
And the princess and the prince
        Am                                                                      C                 D  
Discuss what's real and what is not
G                                            Bb                      C                    G      C/G  G  C/G  F  G  
It doesn't matter inside the Gates of Eden
G                                                 Dm  
The foreign sun, it squints upon
     F                            C            G              C/G    G  
A bed that is never mine
G                                                    Dm  
As friends and other strangers
             F                            C              G  
From their fates try to resign
G                            Bm            Am              G  
Leaving men wholly totally free
                Am                                                                      C                 D  
To do anything they wish to do but die
G                                                            Bb                      C                    G                 C/G    G    C/G    F    G  
And there are no trials inside the Gates of Eden
G                                         Dm  
At dawn my lover comes to me
          F                            C      G              C/G    G  
And tells me of her dreams
G                                                 Dm  
With no attempts to shovel the glimpse
     F                                      C                                 G  
Into the ditch of what each one means
G                         Bm                         Am            G  
At times I think there are no words
          Am                                                 C                 D  
But these to tell what's true
G                                                            Bb                         C                    G      C/G  G  C/G  G  
And there are no truths outside the Gates of Eden
