[Intro]
D
[Chorus]
Bm A/C# D G We were walking in paradise, A Bm Never did notice. A/C# D G F2 Blind in the Buddha land, looking for solace D A/C# Bm We had been told of a place, Em7 A Far beyond this vale of tears Em7 A We could never have guessed, Em7 A We were already blessed Bm There we were, A G2 F2 Where we are D9 In the garden
[Verse 1]
Bm A/C# D G Didn't we climb on up Er Mei, A Bm Temple to temple? A/C# D G2 Yes and all and all along the way, F2 The day was simple Em7 A/C# Bm Didn't we reach the top, Em7 A Didn't we gain our goal? Em7 A Bm A G2 F2 Did we finally stop, surprised by the cold?
[Chorus]
Bm A/C# D G We were walking in paradise, A Bm Never did tumble. A/C# D G F2 Blind in the Buddha land, looking for trouble D A/C# Bm We had been told of a place Em7 A Far beyond this vale of tears Em7 A We could never have guessed, Em7 A We were already blessed Bm There we were, A G2 F2 Where we are, D9 In the garden, D In the garden
