Steve Brooks - Paradise
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO:    C     G     C    F  C  
I met her in the Gmorning
On my Cway down to the well
She was Fdrawing out the water from a CstoneG  
There was Cbarely any Gwarning
As I Amstumbled and I Cfell
On a Fpath that I was walking all aCloneG  
Well, I've Amheard about a Fheaven
Lying Chigh above the Gsky
But they Amnever said that Fheaven
Could be Clooking in my Geyes
CHORUS:
N.C.               C               G  Am  
She gave Paradise a picture and a name
GAnd now, FParadise will Gnever be the Amsame
GNo, FParadise will Gnever be the Csame
INTERLUDE:    C     G     C    F  C  
N.C.             C  G  
It's not easy to imagine
And it's Charder to believe
As I'm Fstruggling just to make my daily CbreadG  
That CI could be her GAdam
Yes, and Amshe could be my CEve
Lying Fnaked in the fragrance of her CbedG  
But I Amnever meant to Fwrestle
With her Cdemons and her Gfears
And I Amnever met the Fdevil
Who was Cwhispering in her Gear
CHORUS:
N.C.                       C             G  Am  
'Til she'd take the name of Paradise in vain
GAnd now, FParadise will Gnever be the Amsame
GNo, FParadise will Gnever be the Csame
INSTRUMENTAL:    G    F       G   Am   C    G    C    G    Am   G    F    G  F  
N.C.                   C  G  
Now the summer shows no mercy
As I'm Csearching for return
And the Fleaves have gone and covered up the CtracksG  
Every Cgarden has its Gserpent
Every Amapple has its Cworm
Maybe FParadise was never meant to ClastG  
But Amwhen the wind is Fblowing
Out aCcross the dusty Gplain
I can Amsmell the roses Fgrowing
I can Calmost taste the Grain
CHORUS:
N.C.               C           G  Am  
And if Paradise can ever be regained
GWell then, FParadise will Gnever be the Amsame
GNo, FParadise will Gnever be the CsameF  C  
FParadise will Gnever be the CsameF  C

Steve Brooks - Paradise

CAPO: 2nd Fret

C G C F C

INTRO:

I met her in the morning

On my way down to the well

F C G

She was drawing out the water from a stone

C G

There was barely any warning

Am C

As I stumbled and I fell

F C G

On a path that I was walking all alone

Am F

Well, I've heard about a heaven

C G

Lying high above the sky

Am F

But they never said that heaven

C G

Could be looking in my eyes

CHORUS:

C G Am

N.C.

She gave Paradise a picture and a name

G F G Am

And now, Paradise will never be the same

G F G C

No, Paradise will never be the same

C G C F C

INTERLUDE:

C G

N.C.

It's not easy to imagine

And it's harder to believe

F C G

As I'm struggling just to make my daily bread

C G

That I could be her Adam

Am C

Yes, and she could be my Eve

F C G

Lying naked in the fragrance of her bed

Am F

But I never meant to wrestle

C G

With her demons and her fears

Am F

And I never met the devil

C G

Who was whispering in her ear

CHORUS:

C G Am

N.C.

'Til she'd take the name of Paradise in vain

G F G Am

And now, Paradise will never be the same

G F G C

No, Paradise will never be the same

G F G Am C G C G Am G F G F

INSTRUMENTAL:

C G

N.C.

Now the summer shows no mercy

As I'm searching for return

F C G

And the leaves have gone and covered up the tracks

C G

Every garden has its serpent

Am C

Every apple has its worm

F C G

Maybe Paradise was never meant to last

Am F

But when the wind is blowing

C G

Out across the dusty plain

Am F

I can smell the roses growing

C G

I can almost taste the rain

CHORUS:

C G Am

N.C.

And if Paradise can ever be regained

G F G Am

Well then, Paradise will never be the same

G F G C F C

No, Paradise will never be the same

F G C F C

Paradise will never be the same
