There?s a thousand roads that get there, and each one looks the same,
FDmAmAm 7
and with every step you?re thinking. should you have gone the other way.
FDmFDm
There are those who give direction, even though they?re lost themselves,
FDmAmAm7
and those who finally get there, never really give no trace of the trail.

So, if you?re searching for some peace of mind,
FDmCCsusC
out in a world that?s cold and unkind,
FDmCCsuC4
hoping someone will throw you a sign.
FDmCCsus4C
Paradise is a hard place, a hard place to find.
FDmFDm
There are wise old men who tell ya, that?s it?s up there in the sky.
FDmAmAm7
But I?ve flown those jumbos, and believe me it?s a lie.
FDmFDm
There are those that think it?s here and now. What you do with everyday.
FDmAmAm7
We better make the best of living,we?re gonna die for sure some day.

I?m not trying to be no prophet. I?m not trying to change your mind
FDmCCsus4C
But I think that this searching is , such a waste of time.
FDmFDm
There are those that have religion, Teach them how to live each day.
FDmAmAm7
Yes, they believe in Paradise. All you have to do is pray.
FDmFDm
But me myself I?m easy. I don?t really have to know.
FDmAmAm7
Just as long as I?m still breathing, and I?ve got somewhere to go.
