The Other Side Of Paradise Chords by Glass Animals

[Intro] 
G  F#  Bm  A x4

[Verse]
Bm                   A
When I was young and stupid my love
G            D        Em 
Left to be a rock and roll star
Bm         A            
He told me please don't worry
G                      D        Em 
Wise little smile that spoke so safely

Bm          A
He booked a one way ticket
G               D          Em 
Out west that's where they make it
Bm             A
Six kids stuck in a bedsit
G           D        Em 
To sunswept poolside riches

[Break] 
Bm  A  G  D  

Bm                A 
He met a girl who wore Versace
G                      D     Em 
Pink feather coats and jumbo jewelry
Bm          A 
Gonna be a hoop phenomenon
G               D      Em 
He's gonna be Hakeem Olajuwan

Bm         A
He's got a gold Camaro
G         D      Em 
He said over the payphone
Bm       A 
I try to keep my cool but
G             D       Em 
My life turns in slow motion

[Chorus]
G            F#
Bye bye baby blue
                 Bm             A
I wish you could see the wicked truth
Em             G                 F#
Caught up in a rush it's killing you
                 Bm            A 
Screaming at the sun you blow into
 Em            G                 F#
Curled up in a grip when we were us
             Bm                  A
Fingers in a fist like you might run
 Em            G             F#
I settle for a ghost I never knew
          Bm             A
Super paradise I held on to
                   G 
But I settle for a ghost

[Verse 2]
Bm                A
When I was from n.o.l.a no one
G            D        Em 
Left to be a rock and roll star
Bm            A 
He'd stay and treat his lady
G                  D       Em 
Give everything to his new baby

Bm         A 
I miss him don't you blame me
G             D          Em 
That boy went stone cold crazy
Bm           A 
Caught up in camera lust he's
G            D     Em 
Chasing that pappy pipe dreams

[Break] 
Bm  A  G  D x2

F#  G x2

[Bridge]
F#
I know you don't but I
G                            F#
I know you don't but I still try

My thunder shook him down
G                             Bm 
My thunder came and shook him down

That girl is gone but I
F#                            G
That girl is gone but I still try
             
I think it's over now
F#                       Bm 
The bullet hit but maybe not

I feel so fucking numb
F#                         G
It hits my head and I feel numb
                   
My body's looking wrong
F#
My body's looking wrong

My body's looking wrong

[Chorus]
G            F#
Bye bye baby blue
                 Bm             A
I wish you could see the wicked truth
 Em            G                 F#
Caught up in a rush it's killing you
                 Bm            A 
Screaming at the sun you blow into
 Em            G                 F#
Curled up in a grip when we were us
             Bm                  A
Fingers in a fist like you might run
 Em            G             F#
I settle for a ghost I never knew
          Bm             A
Super paradise I held on to
                   G 
But I settle for a ghost
