paradise city (live, stoke - 24/7/11) - slash lyrics

[intro]
and this concludes our show for tonight
we’re gonna leave you with one last song
this is called “paradise city”

[chorus]
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
sing it!
(oh, won’t you please take me home?)
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
(take me home)

[instrumental break]
one, two, three, jump!

[verse 1]
just an urchin livin’ under the street, i’m a
hard case that’s tough to beat
i’m your charity case, so buy me somethin’ to eat
i’ll pay you at another time, take it to the end of the line

[verse 2]
rags to riches, or so they say, you gotta
keep pushin’ for the fortune and fame
you know, it’s all a gamble when it’s just a game
you treat it like a capital crime, everybody’s doin’ the time
[chorus]
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home?
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home?
that’s right, oh

[verse 3]
strapped in the chair of the city’s gas chamber
why i’m here, i can’t quite remember
the surgeon general says it’s hazardous to breathe
i’ll have another cigarette, but i can’t see
tell me who you’re gonna believe, sing it!

[chorus]
(take me down to the paradise city)
(where the grass is green and the girls are pretty)
oh, won’t you please take me home?
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home? yeah

[guitar solo]
[bridge]
sing this!
(so far away)
(so far away)
so far away
so far away

[verse 4]
captain america’s torn apart, now
a court jester with a broken heart
he said, “turn me around, take me back to the start”
i must be losin’ my mind, “are you blind?”
i seen it all a million times

[chorus]
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home?
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home?
please sing it for us
(take me down to the paradise city)
(where the grass is green and the girls are pretty)
oh, won’t you please take me home?
take me down to the paradise city
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home?
home
[guitar solo]

[bridge]
i wanna go, i wanna know
oh, won’t you please take me home?
i wanna see how good it can be
oh, won’t you please take me home?

[guitar solo]

[outro]
i wanna go, i wanna go
oh, won’t you please take me home?
i wanna see how good it can be
oh, won’t you please take me
home?
oh, stoke, than you so very much
it’t been a pleasure, thank you
thank you
