G C G
Return to a land called "Paraiso"

A place where a dying river ends

No birds dare fly over Paraiso

No space allows them to endure

The smoke that screens the air
A D
The grass that's never there
[Verse 2]

And if I could see a single bird, what a joy

I try to write some words and create

A simple song to be heard by the rest of the world
[Verse 3]
G C G
I live in this land called "Paraiso"
Em D C
In a house made of cardboard floors and walls

I learned to be free in Paraiso
Em D A
Free to claim anything I see
B Em
Matching rags for my clothes
A D
Plastic bags for the colds
[Verse 4]

And if empty cans were all I have, what a joy
G C
I never fight to take someone else's coins
Em A D
And live with fear like the rest of the boys
[Chorus]

Paraiso, help me make a stand
C G
Paraiso, take me by the hand
C Em
Paraiso, make the world understand
[Post-Chorus]

That if I could see a single bird, what a joy

This tired and hungry land could expect

Some truth and hope and respect

From the rest of the world
