She came [A] from Providence, [B] one in [E] Rhode Island,
where the old world [A] shadows [B] hang heavy in the [E] air.
She [A] packed her hopes and [B] dreams like a [E] refugee,
just as [F#m] her father came [B] across the [E] sea.
She [A] heard about a [B] place, people [E] were smiling,
spoke about [A] the red man's ways [B] and how they [E] loved the land.
They came [A] from everywhere, [B] through the great [E] divide,
seeking a place to [B] stand or a [E] place to hide.
Down in [A] the crowded bars, [B] out for a [E] good time.
[A] Can't wait to tell you [B] all what it's [E] like up there.
Some [A] call it paradise, [B] I don't [E] know why.
Somebody laid [A] the mountains low, [B] while the town died high.

And then [A] the chilly winds blew [B] down across [E] the desert,
through the [A] canyons of the coast [B] to the [E] Malibu.
Where the pretty [A] people play, [B] hungry for [E] power,
the light that young [B] women were given [E] for years to do.
Rich men [A] came and raped the land, [B] nobody [E] caught them.
Put [A] up a bunch of ugly [B] boxes, Jesus [E] people bought them.
They [A] call it [B] paradise, a [E] place to be.
They watched [A] the hazy sun, [B] sleep in the [E] sea.
