Paradise by Richard Havens
capo 3rd fret
There’s a thousand roads that get there, and each one looks the same,
7
and with every step you’re thinking. should you have gone the other way.
There are those who give direction, even though they’re lost themselves,
and those who finally get there, never really give no trace of the trail.

So, if you’re searching for some peace of mind,
out in a world that’s cold and unkind,
hoping someone will throw you a sign.
Paradise is a hard place, a hard place to find.
There are wise old men who tell ya, that’s it’s up there in the sky.
But I’ve flown those jumbos, and believe me it’s a lie.
There are those that think it’s here and now. What you do with everyday.
We better make the best of living,we’re gonna die for sure some day.
Searching for some peace of mind,
out in a world that is cold and unkind.
Hoping someone will show us a sign
Paradise is a hard place
Paradise is a hard place
Paradise is a hard place, a hard place to find.
I’m not trying to be no prophet. I’m not trying to change your mind
But I think that this searching is , such a waste of time.
There are those that have religion, Teach them how to live each day.
Yes, they believe in Paradise. All you have to do is pray.
But me myself I’m easy. I don’t really have to know.
Just as long as I’m still breathing, and I’ve got somewhere to go.
