Cheryl Wheeler Paradise In Troubled Waters written by Cheryl Wheeler
F G
Winter's voice had barely spoken
Em F
Everyone was bummed and broken
F G C F G
Hangin' onto yhreads the way we do
F G
Shielding eyes from TV screens
Em F
With African starvation scenes
G
And photographs in magazines
F G C F G
Of things that can't seem true
C
Paradise In Troubled Waters
F G
Situation grim
C
And we the reckless sons and daughters
F G
Spread the luck so thin
C
Oh, the gross results and chain reaction
F G
Too late understood
F G
Leave us in embarrassed silence
F G
Wishing that we could
C
Make the difference, see the light
F G
Carry the flag, lead the fight
C
Save the whales, save the seals
F G
Save the trees and birds and fields
FaddB C F G
And save each other
F G
So we read the news with helpless eyes
Em F
And look for ways to compromise
F G C F G
But mostly, we just do the best we can
F G
Is it just a part of what we are
Em F
To want too much and go too far
F G
And contemplate with no regard
F G C F G
What we don't understand
