[G] [Em]
[G] [Em]
[G] She was born in [C] a river named
Our [G] Baltimore [D] mother
Into her [C] mother's hands
[G] She was great
And [C] the river was wild
[G] And she was so [D] innocent
Such a [C] beautiful child
Then they [G] took her away
From [Em] paradise
[C] Where [G] everything was beautiful
[D] And very nice
[G] Took her away
[Em] Her mother's tongue
[C] Slapped her [G] around a little [D] bit
Teach her [G] another one
And then there are
[C]
Vestigians
[G] Oh, what could they do [D] with this child
There was no [C] need solution
There was [G] nothing they could do
[C] So they gave her to the streets
And [G] she joined all the [D] rest of the hungry
And [C] tired feet
Then they took [G] her away
From [Em] paradise
[C] Where everything [G] was beautiful
[D] And very nice
[G] Took her away
[Em] Her mother's tongue
[C] Slapped her [G] around a little [D] bit
Teach her [G] another one
And
[Em] [G]
[Em] [C] the pundits [G] said
Don't train me [D] anymore
Oh, [G] I smell a boy
[C] Kind of new
Well, [G]
some of the [D] things
That she was [C] going through
But he [G] was gone soon
[C] Well, he ran away
[G] But he found him again
[D] And here she [C] is today
Here in my heart
Took [G] her away
[Em] From paradise
[C] Where everything [G] was beautiful
[D] And very nice
[G] Took her away
Her [Em] mother's tongue
[C]
Slapped her [G] around a little [D] bit
Teach her [G] another one
Took her away
[Em] From paradise
[G]
[Em] Away From paradise
[G]
Ooh, from [Em] paradise
[G]
Ooh, [Em] from paradise
Now,
[G] take it easy, man.
[N] Come on, baby.
Take it easy.
We'll be right back.
