Intro: F
Verse 1:
F F7
Hey lady, you lady,
Bb F/A Gm F
Cursing at your life
Cm Cm/Bb Cm/A
You're a discontented mother
Gm
And a regimented wife
Eb F
I've no doubt you dream about
Bb F/A Gm F
The things you'll never do
Em7b5
But, I wish someone had to talk to me
F7sus
Like I, wanna talk to you.
Chorus:
Bb
Ooh I've been to Georgia
F/A
And California
Gm Dm7
And anywhere I could run
Eb Dm7
Took the hand of a preacher man
Cm F/A
And we made love in the sun
Bb
But I ran, out of places
F/A
And friendly faces
Gm Dm7
Because I had to be free
Eb Dm7
I've been to paradise
Cm F Bb
But I've never been to me
Verse 2:
F Eb
Please lady, please lady,
Bb F/A Gm
Don't just walk away
Cm Cm/Bb Cm/A
'Cause I have this need to tell you
Gm
Why I'm all alone today
Eb F
I can see so much of me
Bb F/A Gm
Still living in your eyes
Em7b5 Cm
Won't you share a part of a weary heart
F
That has lived a million lies.
Chorus:
Bb
Oh, I've been to Nice
F/A
And the Isle of Greece
Gm Dm7
While I sipped champagne on a yacht
Eb Dm7
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
Cm7 F
And showed 'em what I've got
Bb
I've been undressed by kings
F/A
And I've seen some things
Gm Dm7
That a woman ain't supposed to see
Eb Dm7
I've been to paradise
Cm F (Int.)
But I've never been to me
Interlude: Bb BbM7sus2 Eb/F BbM7sus2 (3x)
Hey, you know what paradise is
It's a lie
A fantasy we create about people
And places as we'd like them to be
But you know what truth is
It's that little baby you're holding
And it's that man you fought with this morning
The same one you're going to make love with tonight
That's truth, that's love
Chorus:
Bb
Sometimes I've been to crying
F/A
For unborn children
Gm Dm7
That might have made me complete
Eb
But I, I took the sweet life
Dm7
And never knew
Cm F
I'd be bitter from the sweet
Bb
I've spent my life exploring,
F/A
The subtle whoring
Gm Dm7
That costs too much to be free,
Eb Dm7 Eb Dm7
Hey lady, I've been to paradise
Cm F Bb F/A Gm Dm7
But I've never been to me
Eb Dm7
I've been to paradise
Cm F
(Never been to me)
Coda: to fade
Bb

F/A
(And California)
Gm Dm7
(And anywhere I could run)
Eb Dm7
I've been to paradise
Cm F
(Never been to me)
Bb
(I've been to Nice)
F/A
(And the Isle of Greece)

(While I sipped champagne on a yacht)

I've been to paradise

(Never been to me)

(I've been to crying)

(For unborn children)
