  A                   D        F
In Eden the darkening garden was still

   Fmaj7           Em            Am
Unwet by all the tears from the sky.

Am                 A    Am
The burden of that disobedient bite

Fmaj7                       G                  Am
Brought all the tears the fallen world would cry.

Am                       A            Fmaj7
The unwelcome tears that they never had known

        Fmaj7               Em          Am
Coursed down their fallen faces in surprise.

Am
All they ever had seen was the light of His face

   Fmaj7            G
But now the sin had entered in

F                      G     Am
Their tears would fall like rain.
Chorus
Am      G          Am
Falling tears from fallen eyes

    F               G          Am
Our faces with an unaccustomed stain

Am
We were driven from the garden
Beneath a cloudless sky
    Fmaj7            G              Fmaj7
For human tears are older than the rain

    Fmaj7         Em          Am
Human tears are older than the rain
Am | | | |B(Am)|Am | | | |D | Am | | | |F |Am
Am                  D                             F
And so we all were driven from His presence and His peace

        Fmaj7                Fmaj7        Am
To stumble all along this long-lamenting race.

Am                                D                  Am
From the deepest, darkest shadows, He joins us on our way

        Fmaj7          G          F         G      Am
And we recognize our fallen tears upon that human face.
