[Intro]
D#m    C# B  x2

[Verse 1]
D#m                    C#    B
I could lay me down forever
       D#m        C#   B
In the smoky afternoon
D#m                                 C#    B
Cause babe, these questions march forever
          D#m                   C#    B
And I can see no answers coming soon
D#m                             C#    B
The days stop still and so have we now
           D#m                       C#   B
Our hungry words left hanging in the air
D#m                             C#        B
Give up these needs, forget the hours now
                  D#m                     C#
Cause where we're heading, time no longer cares

[Chorus]
D#m             A#m            C#       B
Forgetting gets easy where the milk and honey run
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
        D#m        A#m           C#          B
And our sense grow sharp off the fruit of an island sun
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
D#m         A#m      C#       B
So just lay back and wait for it to come
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
      D#m         A#m             C#      B
Cause paradise is somewhere where you and I belong
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)

[Verse 2]
D#m                          C#      B
The sky's ablaze with colors bursting,
          D#m                         C#    B
The tears collect and tumble down our cheeks
D#m                          C#    B
With such perfection, we are taken
       D#m                      C#    B
By the throat, it has us on our knees

[Chorus]
D#m             A#m            C#       B
Forgetting gets easy where the milk and honey run
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
        D#m        A#m           C#          B
And our sense grow sharp off the fruit of an island sun
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
D#m         A#m      C#       B
So just lay back and wait for it to come
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
      D#m         A#m             C#      B
Cause paradise is somewhere where you and I belong
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)

[Bridge]
D#m       A#m        C#             B
     I've tasted the world, all its flavors
D#m       A#m             C#                 B
     I've tried some lash snatched moonlight savor
D#m       A#m          C#             B
     I've had sweet success and sweet failure
D#m          A#m        C#     B                  D#m           A#m    C#   B
     But I'm telling you, I'm telling you nothing quite tastes like?
D#m   A#m   C#   B
(Paradise)

[Chorus]
D#m             A#m            C#       B
Forgetting gets easy where the milk and honey run
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
        D#m        A#m           C#          B
And our sense grow sharp off the fruit of an island sun
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
D#m         A#m      C#       B
So just lay back and wait for it to come
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)
      D#m         A#m             C#      B
Cause paradise is somewhere where you and I belong
D#m   A#m    C#  B
     (Paradise, paradise)

Cause paradise is somewhere where
C#          B
Paradise is somewhere where
D#m         A#m             C#      B    D#m
