Verse 1
(D minor) My par (C major) (D minor) (G major) ent (D minor) (C major) (E major)
(F major) s (D minor) knew these (C major) people (D minor) who
For all their faults were very (G major) nice;
They (D minor) owned a farm whose
(C major) "Olde Worlde" charm
Earned (E major) it the name of (F major) "Paradise".
We came (D minor) to stay one (C major) holiday,
We played (D minor) croquet and (G major) burned our arms;
But (D minor) I was charmed
and (C major) lost for words,
When first (E major) I heard the bird (F major) s
of Paradis (D minor) e Farm.
Singing gay song (C major) s all the day long,
(D minor)
Making love to (G major) the dinner gong,
(D minor)
Wondering when (C major) their human friend (E major)
Would come to feed (F major) them.
I looked (D minor) in the trees and (C major) in the air,
I searched (D minor) the eaves of (G major) disused barns
Till finally, (D minor) to my (C major) despair,
I found (E major) the caged bird (F major) s in
Paradis (D minor) e Farm.
Singing gay song (C major) s all the day (D minor) long,
Making love (G major) to the dinner gong,
(D minor)
Wondering why (C major) their tiny (E major) lives
Should be spent be (F major) hind
iron bars. (F sharpdim) (D major)
Now (G major) "Leonar (A flatdim) do (E major) da Vin (A minor) ci",
"St. Francis (F major) of Assisi"...
But "Neil (F sharpdim) (D major) Hannon of The See House, (G major)
Fivemiletown"-
Well, (E major) (A minor) it doesn't sound
quite right (A major) some (D minor) how! (A major)
(D minor) (C major) (D minor) (G major) (D minor) (C major) (E major) (F major) (D minor) Singing
gay
songs (C major) all summer (D minor) long,
Making love to (G major) the dinner gong, (D minor)
Wondering when (C major) their
human friend (E major)
Would come to free (F major) them.
When the (D minor) last day came, I took my time. (D minor)
They called my name,
and (E minor) revved the car;
"When nature (D minor) calls you must (E minor) reply",
(E minor) (E major) they laughed,
Waving goodbye to Para
(D minor) dis e Farm. (Esus4)
