[Intro]
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
[Verse 1]
D C G G6 Em
Hey lady, you, lady, cursin' at your life
Am D Em
You're a discontented mother and a rich inventive wife
C D G G6 Em
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
A Asus4 Gsus4 D
But I wish someone had a talked to me like I wanna talk to you
[Chorus]
G D Em Bm
Ooh I've been to Georgia and California, oh, anywhere I could run
C G Am D Dsus4 D
Took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
G D Em Bm
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free
C G Am7 D G Gsus4
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
[Verse 2]
D C G G6 Em
Please lady, please, lady, don't just walk away
Am D Em
Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
C D G G6 Em
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
A Asus4 Gsus4 D
Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived a million lies
[Chorus]
G D
Oh I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
Em Bm
While I sipped champagne on a yacht
C G Am D Dsus4 D
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got
G D
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things
Em Bm
That a woman ain't s'posed to see
C G Am7 D G Gsus4
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
[Bridge Spoken]
G Gsus4
Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie. A fantasy we create about
G Gsus4
People and places as we'd like them to be. But you know what truth is?
G Gsus4
It's that little baby you're holding, and it's that man you fought with
G
This morning, the same one you're going to make love with tonight.
C D
That's truth, that's love
[Chorus]
Dsus4 G D
Sometimes I've been to cryin' for unborn children
Em Bm
That might have made me complete
C G Am D Dsus4 D
But I, I took the sweet life and never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
G D Em Bm
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that cost too much to be free
C G Am7 D G
Hey lady, I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
[Link]
G D Em Bm
[Outro]
C G Am7 D G
I've been to paradise, never been to me
G D Em Bm
(I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run)
C G Am7 D G
I've been to paradise, never been to me
G D Em Bm
(I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece While I sipped champagne on a yacht)
C G Am7 D G
I've been to paradise, never been to me
G D Em Bm
(I've been to cryin' for unborn children)
C G Am7 D
