Verse
D C G D Em
Hey lady, you lady, cursing at your life
C D Em
You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
C D G D Em
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
A
But, I wish someone had talked to me
C D
Like I wanna talk to you.
[Chorus]
G D Em Bm
Oh, I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
C G Am D
I 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 Am G
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
D Em Bm C G Am G
[Verse]
D C G D Em
Please lady, please lady, don't just walk away
C D Em
'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
C D G D Em
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
A C D
Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived million lies.
[Chorus]
G D Em Bm
Oh, I've been to Nice and the Isle of Greece while I sipped champagne on a yacht
C G Am D
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got
G D Em Bm
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't s'pposed to see
C G Am G
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me.
C G Am G
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me.
