Birds Of Paradise Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

E G♯ A E B A

EI've been sleeping without memory G♯

G♯I think I'll lie a little longer

AWait for the crowds to go E

 Maybe I'll die in tBhis unholy mass A

 And I'll be free E

EYes that's what they say that I would be G♯

G♯When we came to watch the world be over

 But there's too many fools A

 On this boat that made E

 I canB hardly see the water A

Chorus

BWhat's happened to me

 I was down on myA knees

AI was praying to leave

 But I nEever know when I've gone too far B

BThis disaster in me

 What a beautifuAl dream

AThat told me I'd be cleaner

ETold me I'd be closer to God B

Interlude

A E G♯ A

EOh, the birds of paradise

 Came to me yesterday G♯

G♯Laughed when they told me my fate

 We'd be cold, we'dA be tired, but we could breathe E

 And one day I'm gonna leave this place B A

Repeat Chorus

End A E G♯ A E G♯ A F♯ E
