V1: Am D
MOON SHINING DOWN THROUGH THE PALMS
Am D
SHADOWS MOVING ON THE SAND
Am D
SOMEBODY WHISPERING THE TWENTY-THIRD PSALM
Am D
DUSTY RIFLE IN HIS TREMBELING HAND
Am D
SOMEBODY TRYING JUST TO STAY ALIVE
Am D
HE�S GOT PROMISES TO KEEP
Am D
OVER THE OCEAN IN AMERICA
Am D
FAR AWAY AND FAST ASLEEP
REFRAIN 1: F G F G Am
SILENT STARS BLINKING IN THE BLACKNESS OF AN ENDLESS SKY
F G F G Am
COLD SILVER SATELILTES, GHOSTLY CARAVANS PASSING BY
F G F G
GALAXIES UNFOLDING, NEW WORLDS BEING BORN
F G F G
PILGRIMS AND PRODIGALS CREEPING TOWARD THE DAWN
C E7 Am
BUT IT�S A LONG ROAD OUT OF EDEN
V2: MUSIC BLASTING FROM AN SUV,
ON A BRIGHT AND SUNNY DAY
ROLLING DOWN THE INTERSTATE,
IN THE GOOD �OL U.S.A.
HAVING LUNCH AT THE PETROLEUM CLUB
SMOKING FINE CIGARS, AND SWAPPING LIES
�GIMME NOTHER SLICE OF THAT BARBEQUE BRISKET�
�GIMME NOTHER PIECE OF THAT PECAN PIE�
REFRAIN 2: FREEWAYS FLICKERING, CELL PHONE CHIMING A TUNE
WE�RE RIDING TO UTOPIA,
ROAD MAP SAYS THAT WE�LL BE ARRIVING SOON
CAPTAINS OF THE OLD ORDER CLINGING TO THE REINS
ASSURING US THE ACHES INSIDE ARE ONLY GROWING PAINS
BUT IT�S A LONG ROAD OUT OF EDEN
BRIDGE: Am C D
Am C G
REFRAIN 3: F G
BACK HOME I WAS SO CERTAIN,

THE PATH WAS VERY CLEAR,

BUT NOW I HAVE TO WONDER,

WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?
F G
I�M NOT COUNTING ON TOMMOROW
F G
AND I CAN� T TELL WRONG FROM RIGHT
F G F G
BUT I�D GIVE ANYTHING TO BE THERE IN YOUR ARMS TONIGHT
V3: WEAVING DOWN THE AMERICAN HIGHWAY
THROUGHT THE LITTER, AND THE WRECKAGE, AND THE CULTURAL JUNK
BLOATED WITH ENTITLEMENT, LOADED ON PROPAGANDA
AND NOW WE�RE DRIVING DAZED AND DRUNK
BEEN DOWN THE ROAD TO DAMACUS, THE ROAD TO MANDALAY
MET THE GHOST OF CAESAR ON THE APPIAN HIGHWAY
HE SAID, �IT�S HARD TO STOP THE BINGEING, ONCE YOU GET A TASTE,
BUT THE ROAD TO EMPIRE IS A BLOODY STUPID WASTE�
OUTRO: F G F G
BEHOLD THE BITTEN APPLE, THE POWER OF THE TOOLS
F G F G
BUT ALL OF THE KNOWELDGE IN THE WORLD IS OF NO USE TO FOOLS
C E7
AND IT�S A LONG ROAD, OUT OF EDEN
