Steve Brooks - Paradise
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C G C F C
G
I met her in the morning
C
On my way down to the well
F C G
She was drawing out the water from a stone
C G
There was barely any warning
Am C
As I stumbled and I fell
F C G
On a path that I was walking all alone
Am F
Well, I've heard about a heaven
C G
Lying high above the sky
Am F
But they never said that heaven
C G
Could be looking in my eyes
CHORUS:
N.C. C G Am
She gave Paradise a picture and a name
G F G Am
And now, Paradise will never be the same
G F G C
No, Paradise will never be the same
INTERLUDE: C G C F C
N.C. C G
It's not easy to imagine
C
And it's harder to believe
F C G
As I'm struggling just to make my daily bread
C G
That I could be her Adam
Am C
Yes, and she could be my Eve
F C G
Lying naked in the fragrance of her bed
Am F
But I never meant to wrestle
C G
With her demons and her fears
Am F
And I never met the devil
C G
Who was whispering in her ear
CHORUS:
N.C. C G Am
'Til she'd take the name of Paradise in vain
G F G Am
And now, Paradise will never be the same
G F G C
No, Paradise will never be the same
INSTRUMENTAL: G F G Am C G C G Am G F G F
N.C. C G
Now the summer shows no mercy
C
As I'm searching for return
F C G
And the leaves have gone and covered up the tracks
C G
Every garden has its serpent
Am C
Every apple has its worm
F C G
Maybe Paradise was never meant to last
Am F
But when the wind is blowing
C G
Out across the dusty plain
Am F
I can smell the roses growing
C G
I can almost taste the rain
CHORUS:
N.C. C G Am
And if Paradise can ever be regained
G F G Am
Well then, Paradise will never be the same
G F G C F C
No, Paradise will never be the same
F G C F C
Paradise will never be the same
