I wrote [F#m] back to Eden to find the one I'd [A] left behind. _
[F#m] Gathering roses as I went, by a woman [E] on my mind.
[F#m] And as each red petal fell, they [A] turned to blood.
When [Bm] I found her, she'd left me [A] for [E] another.
[Bm] All wrapped up in the arms of [A] my own [E] brother.
_ _ _ _ _ So [F#m] in the darkness God had made a [A] way I crept.
I [F#m] took the stone from my father's grave and [A] came unto the place [E] they slept.
[F#m] And just as Abel woke, I [A] raised the stone.
_ [Bm] And I cut his head [A] to the _ [E] prapple [Bm] beneath the tree where Eve [A] ate the [E] apple.
[Bm] And I laid [A] her down [E] in the middle.
_ [D] Wild, wild roses, growing [A] high from the mountain.
They are the [E] foothills of heaven, they are the [F#] summit of the [G#] soul.
[A] _ _ [D]
A nameless wanderer, a [A] blood red yonder.
_ [E] Stone by mercy, _ [A] lead me [E] home.
[A] Well, she [E] knelt me right from [D] the start.
_ _ [A]
Wild [E] roses couldn't tame [D] her heart.
_ [C#m] _ [F#m] _

_ I washed [F#m] my hands in the river, in the river and red [A] with blood.
_ [F#m] I felt the water tremble [A] from the coldness of [E] my touch.
The [F#m] Lord banished me to wander until I [A] died.
_ [Bm] And Eve, she left me [A] for our [E] firstborn son.
[Bm] And together they bore a [A] _ [E] generation.
And [Bm] so you, you are all my sons [A] and [E] daughters.
And [Bm] in every night there [A] is [E] murder.
And [Bm] in every [A] woman there's [E] a heart.
Wild, [D] wild roses, growing high [A] from the mountain.
They are the [E] foothills of heaven, they [F#] are the summit of the [G#] soul.
[A] A [D] nameless wanderer, a blood [A] red yonder.
Stone [E] by mercy, [A] lead me _ [E] home.
[A] Well, she knelt [E] me right from [D] the start.
_ _ [A] Wild [E] roses couldn't tame [D] her heart. _ _ _ _ _
