[Intro]
C F x4

[Verse]
C F C F
Still got my high school jacket, still got my high school ring,
C F C F
Tucked in the corner of my wallet is a tattered photo of the king.
C F C F
Yet I.... have to cry, starin' back at silent eyes,
C F C F
I saw a star burn out last night, saw the cryer's paradise, yes I did.

[Break]
C F x4

[Verse]
C F C F
I got stumblin' blind ambition, couple of cards I haven't played,
C F C F
I got a gambler's intuition, I know when I stay too late.
C Bb F C F
Yet I ha-ave to cry, starin' back at silent eyes,
C F C F
Where do gamblers go to die? They go to cryer's paradise.

[Chorus]
Bb Gm
When that man from Memphis left us, we'd already turned our backs,
Bb F C
He was a heartbroke hotel exile, that's the cold and lonely facts.

[Verse]
C F C F
And the whole world greaved, I saw the whole thing on T.V.,
C F C F
Now I ask that eternal question, does the darkness grant release?
C Bb F C F
Yet I ha-ave to cry, as his motorcade goes by,
C F C F
Takin' a sad lonely boy, off to cryer's paradise.

[Verse]
C F C F
I got demons bound to daunt me, I got a ghost from a scary show,
C F C F
I got bad mistakes to haunt me, 'till I'm just a ghost myself.
C Bb F C F
Yet I ha-ave to cry, starin' back at silent eyes,
C F C F
Must my heart be crucified, to get into cryer's paradise.

[Break]
C F (x4)

[Chorus]
Bb Gm
When that man from Memphis left us, we'd already turned our backs,
Bb F C
He was a heartbroke hotel exile, that's the cold and lonely facts.
