[F] Hey lady, [Eb] you [Bb] lady, cursing at [Gm] your life
[Cm] You're a discontented [F] mother [Gm] and a rich invented wife
[Eb] I've no doubt [F] you dream about [Bb] the things you'll [Gm] never do
But [C] I wish someone had to talk to me like [Eb] I want to talk to you
[F] [Bb] I've been to Georgia [F] and California [Gm] and anywhere
[Dm] I've [Eb] kept the hair [Bb] of preacher men and [Cm] we've made love in [F] the sun
But I [Bb] ran out of places [F] and friendly faces [Gm] because I had to [Dm] be free
I've [Eb] been [Gm] to paradise but [Eb] I've [Bb] never been to [F] me
[Eb] [Bb] [Gm] [F] Please lady, [Eb] please lady, [Bb] don't [Gm] just walk away
Cause [Cm] I have [Eb] this need to [F] tell you [Gm] why I'm all [A] alone [Gm] today
[Eb] I can see [F] so much of me [Bb] still living in [Gm] your [Bb] eyes
Won't [C] you share a part of a weary heart [Eb] that has lived a million lives
[F] Oh, [Bb] I've been to Nice [F] and the Isle of Greece [Gm] while I sipped champagne on [Dm] a yacht
[Eb] I moved like Harlan [Bb] DiCarlo [Cm] and showed them what [F] I've got
I've been [Bb] undressed by kings [F] and I've seen some things that [Gm] I want [Dm] most to see
[Eb] I've been to [Gm] paradise but [Cm] I've never been [Bb] to me
[F] [Bb] Hey, you [Eb] know what paradise is?
[F] It's a lie
A fantasy [Bb] we create about people and places [F] as we'd like them to be
But [Eb] you know what truth is?
It's that [F] little baby you're holding
And it's [Bb] that man you fought with this morning
[F] The same one you're going to make love [Eb] with tonight
That's [F] truth, that's love
[Gm] Sometimes [Bb] I've been to [F] crying for unborn [Gm] children that [Dm] bleat
[Eb] But I, I took the speed [Bb] I felt
Never knew [Cm] I'd be bitter from [F] the sweet
I spent [Bb] my life exploring [F] the subtle
[Gm] To [Dm] be free
Hey, may [Eb] I have been [Bb] to paradise [Eb] but [Bb] [Cm] I've never [Eb] been [Bb] to me
[F] [Gm] [Dm] [Eb]
I've [Bb] been to paradise
[Eb] [Bb] We've been to [F] Georgia, California, [Gm] and we've been to [Dm] [Eb] [Bb]
[Cm] Wales
[Bb] And we've been [F] to [Gm] Greece while I sip champagne on a yacht
