Am                      A#
Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed
  Am                       Dm
Looking at the sky, starry-eyed
   Am                      A#
Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed
     Am                  Dm
Crying in the night, teary-eyed

The world is a ghetto

  Am                        A#
Wonder when I'll find paradise
   Am                      Dm
Somewhere there's a home sweet and nice
     Am                 A#
Wonder if I'll find happiness
      Am            Dm
Never give it up now I guess

   Am                       A#
There's no need to search anywhere
   Am                 Dm
Happiness is here, have your share
   Am                       A#
If you know you're loved, be secure
    Am                Dm
Paradise is love to be sure
