Verse:
          E5               C5
Everybody wants a piece of paradise
               G5                   D5
A house upon a hill with a view of heaven
               E5            C5
Now everyone's here so close together
          G5              D5
Paradise is lost and gone forever

Chorus:
             C5                        G5
When we were young we used to walk out in those fields
      D5                    A5
And run forever in the backyard woods
      C5                    D5       G5
Now the old trails disappear in neighborhoods
           D                     Riff 1
With streets after what's gone for good

Verse:
The hills above town used to be the best place
For starry eyed lovers and inspiration
Now it's all paved
Every street's a dead end
And empty summer houses stand all along them

Chorus
          C5      G5
Now there's no trespassing
      D5        A5
There's no going back again
       C5        G5
I only hope you remember
           D5            A5
The way it was, what we had back then

Chorus

Verse:
Everybody wants a piece of paradise
A house up on the hill with a view of heaven
