O.K.
So the song goes like this:

(Rhy. Fig. 1) x 2


(Chorus w/Rhy. Fig. 1) x 2

Take me down to the paradise city,
where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.
Oh won't you please take me home.


(Rhy. Fig. 2) x 2


[(Riff B then Riff B-1) w/Rhy. Fig. 2]
[(Riff B then Riff B-2) w/Rhy. Fig. 2]


(Riff C)


(Verse 1 w/Rhy. Fig. 3)

Just an urchin livin' under the street.
I'm a ... hard case that's tough to beat.
I'm your charity case, so buy me something to eat.
I'll pay you at another time.


(Riff C)


(Verse 2 w/Rhy. Fig. 3)


(Chorus w/Rhy. Fig. 1) x 2


(Solo) not included


Then comes this....


D#|--------10-----------10-------10-----------10------8----|
A#|--------------------------------------------------------|
F#|--10h11----12--10h11----10h11----12--10h11----8h9-------|
C#|--------------------------------------------------------|
G#|--------------------------------------------------------|
D#|--------------------------------------------------------|
  So  far                                   a - way.


After which slide each note on the G string (3rd from the bottom)
down two frets (i.e.  10--8h9----8h9) for a while and then move it
back up two frets and so on.
