Paradise chords by 
Darrell ScottTim O'brien

Verse 1
D
When I was a child,
G
D
my family would travel down to western Kentucky
A
D
where my parents were born.
There's a backwards old town
G
that's often remembered
D
so many times
A
D
that my memories are worn.
And daddy, won't you take me back
G
D
A
to Muhlenberg County
D
Down by the green river
A
D
where paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry my son,
G
D
but you're too late in askin'
Mr. Peabody's coal train
F#m
A
D
G
D
A
D
has hauled it away
Well, sometimes we'd travel
G
D
right down the green river
To the abandoned old prison
A
D
down by a drill
Where the air smelled like snakes
G
D
and we'd shoot with our pistols
But empty pop bottles
A
D
was all we would kill
Daddy, won't you take me back
G
D
to Mutenberg County
Down by the green river
A
D
where paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry, my son,
G
D
but you're too late in askin'
Mr. Peabody's core changes,
A
D
G
D
A
D
let's hold it away
A
D
Then the coal company come
G
D
with the world's largest shovel
And they tortured the timber
A
D
and stripped all the lamb
And they dug for the coal
G
D
till the land was forsaken
They wrote it all down as
A
D
a progress man
Daddy won't you take me back
G
D
to Mutenberg County
Down by the green river
A
D
where paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry, my son,
G
D
but you're too late in askin'
A
Mr. Peabody's coach train is holdin'
D
G
D
A
D
away
G
D
A
D
Now when I die would my ashes
G
D
float down the green river
And let my soul roll on up
A
to the Rochester dam
D
I'll be half way to heaven
G
with paradise away
D
A
D
Just five miles away from wherever I am
And then won't you take me back
G
D
to Muhlenberg County
A
Down by the green river with paradise away
D
I'm sorry my son,
G
D
but you're too late in askin'
A
Mr. Peabody's court train is holdin' away
D
A
Mr. Peabody's court train is holdin'
D
G
D
A
away
D
G
D

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner
theNewPaul
“This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”
This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
Great to tune and play
