[N] [Ab]
They'd be paradise, and put up a fucking line With a pink hotel, a [Eb] boutique, and a slingin'
Zoni always seemed to go, she don't know what
[Db] it's gone They'd be paradise, [Ab] and put up a fucking line
She took all the cheese, and put them in a cheese
half to see them
and she don't know what she got till it's [Db] gone

They'd be paradise, and put up a fucking line _ With a pink hotel, a [Eb] boutique, and a slingin'
[Ab] hot spot _ Zoni always seemed to go, she don't know what
she got till [Db] it's gone They'd be paradise, [Ab] and put up a fucking line _ _
_ _ _ She took all the cheese, and put them in a cheese
_ _ And charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
Now, now, now, Zoni always seemed to go, and she don't know what she got till it's [Db] gone
They'd be paradise, and put up [Ab] a fucking line
_ _ _ _ Hey, Farmer, put away your DDT I don't care about [Db] spots on my apples, leave
me the birds and [Ab] the bees Please
Zoni always seemed to go, and she don't know what she got till [Db] it's gone
They'd be [Ab] paradise, and put up a fucking line
And [Db] now they paid paradise to [Ab] put up a fucking line One night
