Eve, The Apple Of My Eye - Bell X1
This is a great song and a pretty easy one to play. They played it on the recent Other
Voices season 4 and this is the way it's played. Some of the chord names might not be
correct but they're the right chords.

Intro: G/f# (x2)
G G/f#
You left it, I sent it
I want it back
G G/f#
You left it, I sent it
I want it back
If I had you here, I'd clip your wings
Snap you up and leave you sprawling on my pin
This plan of mine is oh so very lame
Can't you see the grass is greener where it rains
G/f#
You left, I died, I went and you cried
You came, I think, But I never really know
G/f# Em
I've served my time, I've watched you climb
The wrong incline, But what do I know
G G/f#
Accept it, Don't let it
Turn the screw
G G/f#
Accept it, And let it
Scream back at you
Now this applies both equally to you and I
The only thing we share is the same sky
These empty metaphors, they're all in vain
Like can't you see the grass is greener where it rains
G/f#
You left, I died, I went and you cried
You came, I think, But I never really know
G/f# Em
I've served my time, I've watched you climb
The wrong incline, But what do I know
G/f#
Yeah what do I know
G/f#
Yeah what do I know
G G/f#
In the garden Snake was a charmin'
And Eve said let's give it a try
G G/f#
Now lead us not into temptation
But no matter how hard I try
G G/f#
When in the garden and Snake is a charmin'
And Eve says let's give it a try
G/f#
Eve is the apple of my eye
G/f#
Eve is the apple of my eye
G/f#
Eve is the apple of my eye
And I lie behind you
G/f#
And cradle you in the palm of me
And I pat your hair down
G/f# Em
I think will we sink or swim?
will we sink or swim?
will we sink or swim?
will we sink or swim?
'Cause we could do either on a whim
