  E                  A                   - B              E
1.     She came from Providence         the one in Rhode Island,
E                           A                 - B           E
    where the old world shadows hang         heavy in the air.
E                   A                      - B        E
    She packed her hopes and dreams        like a refugee,
E                    A              - B        E
    just as her father came         across the sea.
 
    E               A                  - B             E
2.     She heard about a place          people were smiling,
E                    A                      - B         E
    spoke about the red man's ways,          how they loved the land.
E                     A                - B             E
    They came from everywhere          to the Great Divide,
E               A                   - B             E       
    seeking a place to stand         or a place to hide.
 
    E               A                   - B              E
3.     Down in the crowded bars,         out for a good time,
E                  A                    - B                 E
    can't wait to tell you all          what it's like up there.
E                   A                - B           E
    They called it paradise,        I don't know why,
E                        A                    - B                E
    somebody laid the mountains low,          while the town got high.

4.     And when the chilly winds blew down         across the desert,
E                        A                   - B        E
    through the canyons of the coast          to the malibus,
E                    A                    - B          E
    where the pretty people played,        hungry for power,
E                 A                    - B                E 
    to light their neon ways,         give 'em things to do.
 
    E                         A                     - B             E
5.     Some rich man came and raped the land,        nobody caught him,
E                       A              - B                      E
    put up a bunch of ugly boxes        and Jesus people bought them.
 
 
 
 
 
 
E                  A                   - B          E
    They called it paradise,           the place to be,
E                    A               - B              E
    they watched the hazy sun         sinking in the sea.

6.       We can leave it all behind,       and sail to Lahaina,
G                          C             - D             G
    just like the missionaries did,        so many years ago.
G                       C                 - D      G
    They even brought a neon sign,       “Jesus is coming”,
G                         C              - D                       G
  brought the white man's burden down,    brought the white man's reign.
 
  G                       C               - D                G
7.  And we'll provide the grand design,    what is yours and what is mine,
G                         C                 - D              G
    'cuz there is no more new frontier,       we have got to make it here.
G                    C                    - D               G
    We satisfied our endless needs,       and justified our bloody deeds,
G                  C              - D                G   
    in the name of destiny,       and in the name of God.
 
    G             C                     - D         G
8.     And you can see them there        on Sunday morning,
G                C              - D                 G
    stand up and sing about       what it's like up there.
G                 C           D           G
    They called it paradise, I don't know why
G                      C           - D       G
    to call someplace paradise,      kiss it goodbye.
