G C
When paradise is no longer fit for you to live in
Cadd9
And your adolescent dreams are gone
G C
Through the days you feel a little used up
Cadd9
And you don’t know where your energy’s gone wrong
G C
It’s just your soul feelin’ a little downhearted
Cadd9
Sometimes life is too ridiculous to live
G C
You count your friends all on one finger
Cadd9
I know it sounds crazy just the way that we live
Chorus:
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
Smile in the mirror as you walk by
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
And that’s as good as it can get for us
G D C
And there ain’t no reason to stop tryin’
G C
When this cardboard town can no longer amuse you
Cadd9
You see through everything and nothin’ seems worthwhile
G C
And hypocrite used to be such a big word to you
Cadd9
And it don’t seem to mean anything to you now
G C
Just try to live each and every precious moment
Cadd9
Don’t be discouraged by the future forget the past
G C
That’s old advice but it’ll be good to you
Cadd9
I know there’s a balance see it when I swing past
Chorus (x2):
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
Smile in the mirror as you walk by
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
And that’s as good as it can get for us
G D C
And there ain’t no reason to stop tryin’
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
Smile in the mirror as you walk by
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
And that’s as good as it can get for us
G D C
And there ain’t no reason to stop tryin’
G C Cadd9
When paradise can no longer amuse you...
