Sailing 'cross the seas pursuing sorry ships don't know they're sinking 
C            G6              Am    G-D- 
Holding on until all hope is gone 
G           D               Em            D 
Focusing my eyes on distant stars so far away they're blinking 
C              G6             Am  G-D- 
On and off and on and off and on 
        G    D     Em   D        C  G6  Am   G-D- 
But the bird in my hand promises pa-a-radise

Venture forth from cave to conquer everything that's moving 
         C            G6          Am    G-D- 
Pleasure never really lasted very long 
G              D                  Em                       D

            C              G6             Am  G-D- 
Though it's on and off and on and off and on 
        G    D     Em   D        C   G   
But the bird in my hand promises paradise 


Bridge: 
C              G 
All the actors in your play 
     Am                G 
Will do their part and go their way 
   D                G 
Or dance as long as you will pay 
    C                   D 
But she will never fly away

         C                    G6              Am    G-D- 
For me tonight there'll be no sleep until the dawn 
G              D          Em             D 
Neon sign from Paradise Hotel across the street 
            C              G6             Am  G-D- 
Is blinking on and off and on and off and on 
        G    D     Em      D         C   G   
And the bird in my hand is promising paradise
