Verse 1
(E major) (E major)
(E major) She came from (A major) Providence
(B major) One in Rhode (E major) Island
Where the old world (A major) shadows hang

Just as her (F sharp minor) father came
(B major) across the sea (E major)

(E major) She heard about (A major) a place
(B major) People were (E major) smilin'
They spoke about the red (A major) man's way

Seeking a place (A major) to stand
(B major) Or a place to hide (E major)
Verse 3
(E major) Down in the crow (A major) ded bars
(B major) Out for a good (E major) time
Can't wait to tell (A major) you all
(B major) What it's like up (E major) there
And they called it (A major) paradise
(B major) I don't know (E major) why
Somebody laid the moun (A major) tains low
(B major) While the town got

To light their (A major) neon way
(B major) Give them things to do (E major)

(E major) Some rich men came and (A major) raped the land
(B major) Nobody caught (E major) 'em
Put up a bunch of (A major) ugly boxes
(B major) And Jesus people bought 'em (E major)
And they called it (A major) paradise
(B major) The place to be (E major)
They watched the ha (A major) zy sun
(B major) Sinking in the sea

We satisfy our (C major) endless needs
(D major) And justify our (G major) bloody deeds
In the name of (C major) destiny
(D major) And in the name of God (G major)
Verse 8
(G major) And you can (C major) see them there
(D major) On Sunday mor (G major) ning
Stand up and (C major) sing about
