Steve Cifras

[Verse 1]
            G
I know the Bible isn't perfect
G
'Cause it left one person out
G
There was Adam, there was Eve
G
And there was someone else around
          C
Yeah, I think his name was Steve
D                            G
And he was passing through town
G
When he heard a snake a-whispering
G
To Adam in the garden
G
"Take the fruit, it's good for you"
G
Steve said, "I beg your pardon
   C
I know it's not my business
 D                         G
But will you just hear me out"
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
   G
He said, "I wouldn't lie
            C
You should not go to that tree
      D                                    G
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
         G
Oh, you want what you can't have
                C
But you've got all the things you need"
            D                                 G
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
 
 
[Chorus]
           G    C        D               G
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
 C           D           G
Don't risk it all for a taste
D   Em   D     C
Oh, what a waste
         D                          G
To have everything and give it all away"
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate
G
Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake
        C
In the midst of all the chaos
  D                        G
Steve was still screaming out
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
    G
He said, "I wouldn't lie
            C
You should not go to that tree
      D                                    G
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
        G
Oh, you want what you can't have
                C
But you've got all the things you need"
           D                                  G
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
 
 
[Chorus]
           G     C         D             G
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
 C             D         G
Don't risk it all for a taste
D    Em  D     C
Oh, what a waste
         D                          G
To have everything and give it all away"
 
 
[Bridge]
     G
Sometimes I feel like Adam
             G
'Cause I've got more than I need
     G
But even when I have it all
  G
I want what's out of reach
          C
Maybe I should learn my lesson
D                          G
Like Steve was talkin' to me
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
     G
He said, "I wouldn't lie
            C
You should not go to that tree
      D                                    G
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
         G
Oh, you want what you can't have
                C
But you've got all the things you need"
            D                                 G
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
 
 
[Chorus]
           G    C          D             G
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
C             D          G
Don't risk it all for a taste
D    Em  D    C
Oh, what a waste
          D                          G
To have everything and give it all away"
