Elvis Costello - Living In Paradise (1978) [+Lyrics] chords
Jam Along & Learn...
[D] I don't like those other guys looking at your curves.
I don't like you walking around with physical jerks.
Everything they say and do is getting on my nerves.
Sooner we'll be lucky to be picking up the perks.
[F#] Cause when they pull the shutters [Bm] down and throw up in the dark,
They'll find that all the dogs [G] outside bite much worse [A] than before.
[D] Here we are living in paradise,
[Em] You're the [Bm] luxury of [F#m] the thrill of fear,

[D] I don't like those other guys looking at your curves.
_ I _ _ _ _ _ don't like you walking around with physical _ _ jerks.
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
Everything they say and do is getting on my nerves. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Sooner we'll be lucky to be picking up the perks. _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] Cause when they pull the shutters [Bm] down and throw up in the dark,
They'll find that all the dogs [G] outside bite much worse [A] than before. _
[D] Here we are living in _ paradise, _
[Em] You're the _ [Bm] luxury _ of [F#m] the thrill of fear,
[Bm] But it won't last long, you [F#m] better have your fun.
[E] Boris, you move so long,
[D] You're _ already [E] looking for another [Bm] _ fool [G] like _ me.
_ _ _ [D] You better fell on cause you are a pretty villain,
_ _ [Bm] _ _
[D] _ _ And I think that I should tell them that you'd make a pretty _ killin'. _ _ _
_ _ _ Cause meanwhile up in heaven they are waiting at the gates, _ _ _ _
_ _ Saying we always knew you'd make it, didn't think you'd come this late.
_ [Bm] _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F#m] Now it's much too dangerous [A#] to stop what [Bm] you've begun,
When everyone in [D] paradise has a rose up their head.
You've got to live in _ [Bm] paradise,
_ [Em] You're the luxury [Bm] _ _ of [F#m] the thrill of fear,
[Bm] But it won't last long, [F#m] you better have your fun.
[E] Boris, you move so long,
[D] _ You're already [E] looking for [Bm] another _ [B] fool [G] like _ me. _ _ _ _
[D] Later in the evening when arrangements are made,
_ _ _ _ At _ _ the keyhole outside your bedroom door, _ _ _ _ _ _
Cause I'm the first to know whenever the plans are laid, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ But never go further than far to fly. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] You think that I don't know [Bm] the part that you're touching,
I'll be at the video, [G] I will be [D] watching.
We are living in paradise,
_ We are living in paradise,
_ We are living in paradise,
_ We are living in [Bm] paradise,
[Em] You're _ the luxury _ _ _ of [F#m] the thrill of fear,
But [Bm] it won't last [F#m] long, you better have your fun.
Boris, [E] you move so long,
You're [D] _ already [A] looking for [Bm] another _ fool like me.
[Bm] And [D] you're _ [E] already [A] looking for [Bm] another fool [G] like me.
[D] And you're [F#] already looking for [Bm] another _ fool like me.
[D] And you're already [A] looking for [Bm] another _ fool like me. _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
