Cadd9 D/F# G
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Cadd9 D/F# G
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
G D/F#
Don't it always seem to go
Cadd9 G
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
G
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Cadd9
Ooooh, bop bop bop

They took all the trees, and put 'em in a tree museum
Cadd9 D/F# G
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
No, no, no

Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT

I don't care about spots on my apples

Leave me the birds and the bees
Please
G D/F#
Don't it always seem to go
