Subject: CRD: Mersey Paradise — Stone Roses
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
repeat chorus
