Mersey Paradise

Intro:

G C D C D (C's and D's arpeggio'd)

G

River splashes against the rocks

C D C D

And I scale the slope I hope the tracks won't

G

Lead me down to dark black pits or

C D C D

Places where we fall to bits

G

If she were there I'd hold her down

C D C D

I'll push her under while she drowns and

G

Couldn't breathe and call for air

C D C D

She doesn't care for my despair

G C

Or is it me? Am I the one that's wrong?

D

(one that's wrong) You see it in the sea

G C

river cool's where I belong

(no chord) G

In my Mersey paradise

G

As I stare an oil wheel comes

C D C D

Sailing by and I feel like

G

Growing pins and falling in

C D C D

With the bricks, the bikes, the rusty tin I

G

Swim along without a care

C D C D

I'll eating sand when I need air you can

G

Bet your life I'll meet a Pike who'll

C D C D

Wolf me down for tea tonight

G

I want to be (I want to be)

C D

where the drownings are (drownings are)

You see it in the sea

G C

river cool's where I belong

(no chord) G

In my Mersey paradise

repeat chorus

(no chord)

Oh yeah
