[Verse]
E
Jesse lied to her mamma
E
She was packin her pajamas
E
Said "I'm sleepin down at Mary Sue's"
E
Mamma said "young lady"
E
"Just stay away from Eddie"
           B
"Or you'll know what you daddy's gonna do"
            E
Thought she had her bases covered
        E
Sneakin out to meet her lover
                                    A
With his lights off and drivin real slow
    B
Her daddy's out of town
        B
So they threw the hammer down
       B                E
At the sign of Paradise Road

[Chorus]
         A
Paradise Road
    A
she knew what she was doing
         E
Paradise Road
   E
He talked her in to it
    E
Two kids too young
      A
Going way too fast
B                   E    F
Burning up Paradise Road

[Key Change to F]

[Verse]
F
Daddy finished early
    F
The trip was a whirl he
            F
He made his mind up
            F
To hurry on home
    F
The moon beamin down
        F
When he hit the edge of town
      C/G
Saw a shortcut he used to know
         F
He got a smile on his face
        F
When he thought about the place
         F                Bb
Where he took mamma long ago
C/G
For old time's sake
C/G
He stomped on the brake
C/G                    F
Turned off on Paradise Road

[Chorus]
         Bb
Paradise Road
    Bb
she knew what she was doing

Paradise Road

Burning up Paradise Road

[Verse]
      Gb
Eddie started gettin bolder
Gb
Pulled onto the shoulder
Gb
Hopin that they wouldn't be seen
      Gb
Their heads were a-reelin
         Gb
From the passion they were feelin
       F#5
Didn't see the coming headlight beam
      Gb
Daddy thought they were stranded
      Gb
So he stopped to lend a hand
    Gb                   B
His eyes just couldn't believe
          F#5
There was Eddie and Jessie
F#5
Hidin in the back seat
F#5                   Gb
Makin all the windows steam

But what Jessie don't know
