Paradise City (Live, 2012)

[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home? (Take me home)
Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home? (Take me home)
Look out

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Take me down, spin me 'round
Oh, won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home? (Take me home)
Look out

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]
Just a' urchin livin' under the street, I'm a
Hard case that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case, so buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Eat it

[Verse 2]
Rags to riches, or so they say, you gotta
Keep pushin' for the fortune and fame
You know it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime
Everybody's doin' the time

[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home?
Look out

[Verse 3]
Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
The Surgeon General says it's hazardous to breathe
Have another cigarette, but I can't see
Tell me who you're gonna believe

[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home? Yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

[Verse 4]
Captain America's been torn apart
He's a court jester with a broken heart
He said, "Turn me around and take me back to the start"
I must be losin' my mind, "Are you blind?"
Seen it all a million times

[Chorus]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home?
Take me down, spin me 'round
Oh, won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't ya take me home? Home
Yeah

[Guitar Solo]
Hahaha

[Outro]
(Oh) I wanna go, I wanna know
Oh, won't ya take me home?
I wanna see how good it can be
Oh, won't you please take me home? Yeah
Baby
Please!
