View chords used in this chart
Intro: C Dm (repeat)
C
There is a land I know where lovers go
Dm
And flowers grow forevermore
C
Where time is standing still and lovers fill
Dm
The quiet places by the shore
Em
We will cross the rainbow
Am
To a place where we'll be free
Dm
Where he'll give his love to me
F G
So I'll wait for the day when he takes me away to...
Chorus:
C
(Paradise) He'll take me by the hand to
F
(Paradise) We'll walk along the sand in
C
(Paradise) A never never land
F C
(Paradise) Wo wo wo
We'll build a castle there so we can share
The happiness we've waited for
While white flamingos fly way up high
Way above the ocean's roar
We will climb a mountain
To see our wonderland
Maybe now you'll understand
Why I've waited for the day when he takes me away to...
Chorus
D#
(Stand by him) I'll stand by him
G#
(Do right by him) Do right by him
D# G# F#
And I swear that I would die for him, die for him
Chorus
