When   she   was   just   a   girl

Dm                             C
She   expected   the   world

Gm                                  F
But   it   flew   away   from   her   reach   so

Dm                            C
She   ran   away   in   her   sleep

Gm               Bb
And   dreamed   of   para – para – paradise,

F                 C                 Gm               Bb

Para – para – paradise,   para – para – paradise

F                       C
Every time she closed her eyes.
