[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ On the park, [B] on Paradise Street, _ [Em] I tumble down like a poet dream.
_ Oh [G] my, I got by, _ stretch up and touch the [Em] sky. _ _
Down with [G] the party clowns, [C] _
ballroom [Bm] dancing in sequined gowns.
[A] I get so confused, [Bm] searching for [G] your babe.
How come you keep [C#m] walking off that way? _ _
_ [D] Oh no, _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ a [E] little darling, this [Bm] is the _ end. _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ I [F#m] need you like [Bm] oxygen. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ Some [A] suckers call, _ [D] _ _ _ [A] I'm _
[C#m] not a [D] single _ _ _ one.
_ [Bm] Oh no, _ _ _
_ [G] _ I [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] got by, walk a plank and grab a snack.
I hope I'm smoking myself to death.
You're bad for me, and bad for the soul.
I hope I'm losing myself as well.
_ [Em] _ _ [G] Nothing but the fading dreams, [C] of crawling after you [Em] on my hands and knees.
[A] Now I'm so caught [Bm] on a downhill track.
[G] I don't know what I'll do [C#m] if you don't come back.
_ _ [D] Oh no, _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
a little [C#m] darling, this [D] is the _ end.
_ _ [E] _ _ [A] _
I [C#m] need you like [Bm] oxygen.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
Some [A] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [A] suckers call, _ [D] _ _
_ [A] I'm not a single [E] _
one. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] Oh no, I got by, _ _ walk a [Em] plank _ _ _ _ _ and grab a snack. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [C#m] Oh no, a little darling, this is [Bm] the _ end. _ _
_ _ [A] _ I [C#m] need you like [Bm] oxygen. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [D] _ Some [A] suckers call, _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _
I'm not a single [D] one. _ _ _ _
Oh [A] _ no, a little [E]
darling, this [D] is the _ end. _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ I need [C#m] you like [Bm] oxygen. _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [D] _ Some [A] suckers call, _ [D] _ _ _ [A] I'm not a [Em] single _ one. _ _
_ Oh no, _ [G] _ _
oh no. _ _ _ _ _
