Paradise Lost

Em C/G Everybody wants a piece of paradise G D A house upon a hill with a view of heaven Em C/G Now everyone's here so close together G D Paradise is lost and gone forever C/G G When we were young we used to walk out in those fields D Am And run forever in the backyard woods C/G D G Now the old trails disappear in neighborhoods D Riff 1 With streets after what's gone for good The hills above town used to be the best place For starry eyed lovers and inspiration Now it's all paved Every street's a dead end And empty summer houses stand all along them C G Now there's no trespassing D Am There's no going back again C G I only hope you remember D Am The way it was, what we had back then Everybody wants a piece of paradise A house up on the hill with a view of heaven
