Big Yellow Taxi

G

     C                                     G
They paved paradise, they put up a parking lot
  D                                         G
A pink hotel, a boutique an' a swingin' hot spot
                Bm
Don't it always go to show
    C                                 G
You never know what you got till it's gone
     C         D          C          D        G
They paved paradise, they put up a parking lot.

They took all the trees, they put them in a tree museum
They charged the people a dollar an' a half just to see 'em
Don't it always go to show
