F
I still care about Christian
C
Does he care about me'
G
When I see him around he looks down,
F

afraid of what he'll see

F
And I know there's a heaven
C
that he's trying to find
G
But it's hell that he makes, callous and afraid
F
of the ones he's left behind

(Intro again)

F
And the touch of his body,
C
so tender and cruel,
G
when he made me play girlfriend,
F
there wasn't much I could do

F
He'd come to my garret,
C
and we'd make something like love
G
But the flowers he gave me have wilted,
F
but I keep them, like I keep him

C
He wants a life after life
        G
But the world he didn't love,
        F
and the one he didn't love
should have been

C
Night after night
        G
But the world he didn't love,
        F
and the one he didn't love
will never know


(Intro again with this:)
F   C
G         F
paradise


F
When he makes his confessions,
C
when he says his prayers
G
and kneels beside his bed in the moonlight,
F
is a part of me there'

F
He's taken up with a new girl,
C
who keeps his conscience clean,
G
and tells him he's a keeper,
F
though I don't know if he knows what that means

C
He wants a life after life
        G
But the world he didn't love,
        F
and the one he didn't love
should have been

C
Night after night
        G
But the world he didn't love,
        F
and the one he didn't love
will never know

F  G
C          F
paradise

F  G
      So live in(??)

C
...
        G
But the world he didn't love,
        F
and the one he didn't love
should have been

C
(Should have been)
        G
But the world he didn't love,
        F
and the one he didn't love
will never know

C
...
G    F
Paradise

C

G    F
Paradise
