Chords for Ron Hynes - Cryers Paradise

_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Ab] _ [Eb] Still got my high school [Ab] jacket, [Eb] still got my high [Ab] school hat
Tucked [Eb] in the corner of [Ab] my wallet is a [Eb] tattered photo [Ab] of a king
Yet [Eb] I [Ab] have to cry, [Eb] staring back at [Ab] silent eyes
I [Eb] saw a star burn out [Ab] last night, [Eb] saw the crier's [Ab] paradise
[Eb] Yes I did
_ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Eb] I [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Ab] _ [Eb] got stuff and [Ab] blind ambition, [Eb] couple of cards I [Ab] haven't played
I [Eb] got a gambler's [Ab] intuition, [Eb] I know when I stay [Ab] too late
Yet I have to cry, [Eb] staring back at [Ab] silent eyes
[Eb] Where do gamblers [Ab] go to die, [Eb] they go to crier's [Ab] paradise
[Db] When that man from Memphis left us, [Bbm] we'd already turned our backs
He [Db] was a heartbroke hotel exile, that's the golden [Eb] moment box
And the whole [Ab] world grieved, I [Eb] saw the whole thing on [Ab] TV
Now [Eb] I ask that [Ab] eternal question, [Eb] does the darkness grant a release
Yet I have to cry, [Eb] as the motorcade [Ab] goes by
[Eb] Taking a sad and lonely boy off to crier's [Ab] paradise
I [Eb] got demons [Ab] bound to haunt me, I [Eb] got a ghost from [Ab] stare to show
I [Eb] got bad mistakes [Ab] to haunt me, [Eb] till I'm just a ghost myself
Yet I [Ab] have to cry, [Eb] staring back at silent [Ab] eyes
Must [Eb] my heart be [Ab] crucified, again [Eb] in a crier's [Ab] paradise

[Eb] Tucked in the corner of [Ab] my wallet in a [Eb] chatter cloth of [Ab] jeans
Yet I have to cry, [Eb] staring back at [Ab] silent eyes
I [Eb] saw a star burn out [Ab] last night, it's [Eb] all the crier's [Ab] paradise
Yet I have to cry, [Eb] staring back at [Ab] silent eyes
Must [Eb] my heart be [Ab] crucified, [Eb] again in a crier's [Ab] paradise
