[Verse1]
[E] She came from [A]Providence t[-]he[B] one in Rhode I[E]sland,
[E] where the old world shad[A]ows hang h[-]ea[B]vy in the ai[E]r.
[E] She packed her [A]hopes and dreams [-]li[B]ke a refu[E]gee,
[E] just as her [A]father came [-][B]across the [E]sea.
[Verse2]
[E] She heard [A]about a place [-] p[B]eople were smi[E]ling,
[E] spoke about the [A]red man's ways, [-] h[B]ow they lo[E]ved the land.
[E] They came from [A]everywhere [-]to[B] the Great Div[E]ide,
[E] seeking a [A]place to stand [-] o[B]r a place to h[E]ide.
[Verse3]
[E] Down in the [A]crowded bars, [-] o[B]ut for a good t[E]ime,
[E] can't wait to [A]tell you all [-]wh[B]at it's like up th[E]ere.
[E] They called it p[A]aradise, I[-] d[B]on't know wh[E]y,
[E] somebody laid the [A]mountains low, [-][B]while the town got [E]high.

[Verse4]
[E] And when the [A]chilly winds blew down [-]ac[B]ross the des[E]ert,
[E] through the canyons [A]of the coast [-] t[B]o the mal[E]ibus,
[E] where the pretty [A]people played, [-] [B]hungry for [E]power,
[E] to light their[A] neon ways, g[-]iv[B]e 'em things to d[E]o.
[Verse5]
[E] Some rich man came and [A]raped the land, [-] [B]nobody caught [E]him,
[E] put up a bunch of [A]ugly boxes [-] [B]and Jesus people bought [E]them.
[E] They called it [A]paradise, [-][B]the place to [E]be,
[E] they watched the [A]hazy sun [-] [B]sinking in the [E]sea.

[Verse6]
[G] We can leave it [C]all behind, [-] [D]and sail to [G]Lahaina,
[G] just like the [C]missionaries did, [-] [D]so many years [G]ago.
[G] They even brought a [C]neon sign, [-]“[D]Jesus is [G]coming”,
[G] brought the white man's [C]burden down, [-] [D]brought the white man's
[G]reign.
[Verse7]
[G] And we'll provide the [C]grand design, [-] [D]what is yours and [G]what is
mine,
[G] 'cuz there is no more [C]new frontier, [-] [D]we have got to [G]make it
here.
[G] We satisfied our [C]endless needs, [-][D]and justified our [G]bloody
deeds,
[G] in the name of [C]destiny, [-][D]and in the name of [G]God.
[Verse8]
[G] And you [C]can see them there [-] o[D]n Sunday m[G]orning,
[G] stand up and [C]sing about [-] [D]what it's like up [G]there.
[G] They called [C]it paradise, [D]I don't know [G]why
[G] to call someplace [C]paradise, [-] [D]kiss it [G]goodbye.
