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