Chords for John Prine - Paradise (Muhlenberg County) with Sarah Jarosz

[D] _ _ _ When I was a child, [G] I was a [Dm] land hand with a truck
That would feed the poor, [Am] who [D] were the slaves of the farm

So many times, the memories are [Dm] _ born _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Now, they don't want you taking me [G] back to meet a [D] bird cat _

_ Peabody's corn [A] trays, I won't give any [D] away _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Sometime we'd travel [G] right down the grain [D] road
To the abandoned world prison [A] down by Averill
[D] _ _ Well, _ _ _ _ _ _ the air stinks, sneaks, [G] we'd shoot [Dm] to our death
It'd be five dollars, [A] with all that we'd [D] kill
_ Now, _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [D] _
they don't want you taking me [G] back to meet a bird [D] cat
_ They'd rather be with me, [A] with a [D] paradise _ land _
