I recall the closing door and I remember seeing shadows cross the
G C D Dsus4 D
stained-glass stare
G Em C D
Long before the strangers came down to steal our clothing and our consciences
G C D D F# D F# D
And long before, eyes were empty hearts were cold
F# D F# D
We'll watch the rattlesnake slide, slowly swerve into view, to
F# D F# D
Tease and tantalize, to suck your senses and spit out the pieces
F# D F# D
Magazine girl, she is living in a different world, or is it a he?
F# D F# D
Pull back the curtain my son, I look around-- the color has gone
G Am Em G Am
And slowly darkness descends upon me. Paradiso, I know you lie--
Em F# D F# D
that much is clear (to me).
F# D D
While the serpent sings his song to so many sleeping staring eyes
F# D F# D
Like sheep they sing along and clap in time to a heart that's beating
F# D F# D
Crazy child, she is wicked oh she is wild and so enticing
F# D F# D
Pull back the curtain today, I look around me and the color is gray
G Am Em G Am
Gray as this ghost town that towers above me. Paradiso, I know you lie--
Em
That much is clear (to me)
F G Em

I see the poet and the fool walking hand in hand to school
G Em C D
And I recall the lonely outcast and I remember laughing children
G C D F# D
It was long before their eyes were empty, hearts were cold
F# D F# D
F# D D
So dance this final dance with me and wrap your sting around my spine
F# D F# D
Will poison wash away the tears, wipe the world from my mind
F# D F# D
Look up--- what can you do? I looked around the color was blue
F# D F# D
Wise up, it's in your head, I looked around me and the color was red
G Am Em G Am
Red as the words that I read on the wall, paradiso-- kingdoms rise,
Em
So must they fall
G Am Em Am Em
And only ashes remain in the end, paradiso-- I know you lie, lies without end
G Am Em G Am Em
I'll see it again and again and again, I'll see it again and again and again
Em C Em C Em C Em
Paradiso, paradiso
