Chords for Paraiso by Leah Salonga Lyrics.wmv

[Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ Return [Ab] _ [Db] to a land [Fm] _ [Ab] called _ [Eb] Paraíso, _ _ [Fm] a _ place where a _ dying [Db] river _ _ _ _ [Eb] ends.
[Ab] No birds [Db] dare fly [Ab] over _ _ [Eb] Paraíso. _
_ [Fm] No space _ _ _ allows [Bb] them [Dm] to endure [C] the smoke that screams [Fm] the air,
the grass that's never [Ab] there.
And if [Db] I could [Ab] see a single bird, what a joy.
I'd try to write some words and create a simple song to be heard
[Bb] by the _ _ _ rest [Ab] of the _ _
_ [Eb] world.
_ [Ab] I _ live in [Db] this land _ [Ab] called _ [Eb] Paraíso,
_ _ [Fm] in a _ house [Ab] made of cardboard _ [Db] floors and walls.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ I learned to [Db] be free _ [Ab] in _ _ Paraíso.
_ _ _ Fame, _
_ [Eb] _ anything [Dm] I [Bb] _
see,
[C] matching rags for [Fm] my _ clothes,
[Bb] plastic bags for [Eb] the [Ab] cold.
And [Db] if empty cans [Ab] were all I had, what [Db] a joy.
I'd never [Ab] fight to take [Db] someone else's coins
[Fm] and live with fear [Bb] like the _ _ _ _ rest [Bbm] of the world.
_ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _
_ [Cm] Help [Ab] me make a _ stand.
[Eb] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _
_ [Cm] Take [Ab] me by the _ hand.
[Eb] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Fm] Make the world understand.
[Bb] _
If [Db] I could see [Ab] a single bird, what [Db] a joy.
This [Ab] tired and hungry land could [Db] expect
some truth [Fm] and hope and respect [D] from the rest.

I'd never [Ab] fight to take [Db] someone else's coins

[D] you and your soul.

If I could see a [A] single bird, [Gbm] what a [D] joy.
This tired and [A] hungry land could [D] expect
some [Gbm] truth and hope [A] and _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ respect from the [D] rest.
