Paradise Once chords

INTRO: [C] [F] [C] [F] [C]

These birds don't sing in the rain [F]
They're waiting for the sun to shine [C]
But I'm a man and a man-made [F]thing
I can sing out [Am]anytime [G]

I can sing in the tr[F]ees
I'll sing before the rivers rise [G]
Maybe make you beli[F]eve
G-Am
That we were part of paradise
[G] [F] G-Am
We could be part of paradise
'Cause we were[G] part of para[F]dise, o[C]nce [F] [C]

I don't have any wings [F]
But there are nights when I can fly [C]
And I'll give you all of my [F]rings
Like I'm the oldest [Am]tree alive [G]

But I can't stand like a tre[F]e
And you can cut me down to size [G]
Even make me beli[F]eve
G-Am
That we were part of paradise
[G] [F] G-Am
We could be part of paradise
'Cause we were[G] part of para[F]dise, o[C]nce [F] [C]

Nothing ever gets lost [F]
Just the pieces move a[C]round
And I can't figure out the cost[F]
I know that it will even out [G]

Without feather or br[F]anch
Love brings you closer to the skies [G]
It can give you back the [F]chance
G-Am
To be where it was paradise
[G] [F] G-Am
To see a part of paradise
To be a [G]part of para[F]dise, o[C]nce [F] [C]
