[E]She came from [A]Providence, [B]the one in Rhode [E]Island
[E]Where the old world [A]shadows hang, [B]heavy in the [E]air
[E]She packed her [A]hopes and dreams, [B]like a refu[E]gee
[E]Just as her [A]father came, [B]across the [E]sea[Esus4]
[E]She heard [A]about a place, [B]people were [E]smiling
[E]Spoke about the[A] red man's ways, h[B]ow they lov[E]ed the land
[E]They came from [A]everywhere, to the[B] Great Divi[E]de
[E]Seeking a place[A] to stand, or a pl[B]ace to hide[E][Esus4]
[E]Down in the cro[A]wded bars, out for[B] a good tim[E]e
[E]Can't wait to t[A]ell you all, what [B]it's like u[E]p there
[E]They called it [A]paradise, I don't [B]know why[E]
[E]Somebody laid t[A]he mountains low, [B]while the t[E]ow[Esus4]n got high

[E]When the chilly[A] winds blew down, [B]across the [E]canyon
[E]Through the can[A]yons of the coast,[B] to the mal[E]ibus
[E]Where the prett[A]y people played, h[B]ungry for p[E]ower
[E]To light their [A]neon ways, give 'e[B]m things to[E] d[Esus4]o
[E]Some rich man c[A]ame and raped the [B]land, nobod[E]y caught him
[E]Put up a bunch [A]of ugly boxes, and[B] Jesus peop[E]le bought them

[E]They watched th[A]e hazy sun, sinkin[B]g in the se[E]a [Esus4]
