[Verse 1]
E                        A                 B                           E
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     Esus4
Just as her father came, across the sea

[Verse 2]
E               A                       B                   E
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 Esus4
Seeking a place to stand, or a place to hide

[Verse 3]
E                       A                          B                E
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  Esus4
Somebody laid the mountains low, while the town got high

[Bridge 1]
Amaj7 A6 E Esus4 Amaj7 A6 E B7 E

[Verse 4]
E                      A                            B               E
When the chilly winds blew down, across the desert
Through the canyons of the coast, to the Malibus
Where the pretty people played, hungry for power
E                   A                          B                E Esus4
To light their neon ways, give 'em things to do

[Verse 5]
E                       A                              B                E
Some rich man came and raped the land, nobody caught him
Put up a bunch of ugly boxes, and Jesus people bought them
They called it paradise, the place to be
E                       A                            B              E Esus4
They watched the hazy sun, sinking in the sea

[Bridge 2]

[Verse 6]
G                        C               D            G
You can leave it all behind, 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    Gsus4
Brought the white man's burden down, brought the white man's reign

[Verse 7]
        G                         C                    D                          G
And we'll provide the grand design, what is yours and what is mine
G                                     C                  D                                 G
'cause 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 Gsus4
In the name of destiny, and in the name of God

[Verse 8]
G                                  C        D                G
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 Gsus4
To call someplace paradise, kiss it goodbye
