Introdução:
D2 C9
Hey lady, you lady
G D/F# Em D
Cursing at your life
Am G D/F# D
You're a discontented mother
Em
And a regimented wife
C D
I've no doubt you dream about
G D/F# Em D
The things you never do
A7
But I wish someone had talked to me
C9
Like I wanna talk to you
{Chorus}
D G D/F#
Ooh, I've been to Georgia and California
Em Bm
And anywhere I could run
C G/B
Took the hand of a preacher man
Am7 D
And we made love in the sun
G D/F#
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
Em Bm
Because I had to be free
C G/B Am7 G
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
D C9 G F#m Em
{Verse 2}
D C9
Please lady, please lady
G D/F# Em D
Don't just walk away
Am G D/F# D
'Cause I have this need to tell you
Em
Why I'm all alone today
C D
I can see so much of me
G D/F# Em D
Still living in your eyes
A7
Won't you share a part of a weary heart
C9
That has lived a million lives?
{Chorus}
D G D/F#
Oh, I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
Em Bm
Where I sipped champagne on a yacht
C G/B
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
Am7 D
And showed 'em what I've got
G D/F#
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/B Am7 G
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
G D C Dthrºughout}
Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie
A fantasy we create about people and places
D G D/F#
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
Em Bm
That might have made me complete
C
But I... I took the sweet life
G/B Am7 D
I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
G D/F#
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
Em Bm
That cost too much to be free, hey lady...
C G/B Am7 D G
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
D/F# Em Bm
{Outro, fade out}
C G/B Am7
I've been to paradise
G D/F#
(Never been to me)
Been to Georgia and California
Em Bm
And anywhere I could run
C G/B Am7
I've been to paradise
G D/F#
(Never been to me)
Been to Nice and the isle of Greece
Em Bm
Where I sipped champagne on a yacht
C G/B Am7
I've been to paradise
G D/F#
(Never been to me)
Been to crying for unborn children
Em Bm
That might have made me complete
C G/B Am7 G
I've been to paradise (never been to me)
