Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
G         F         C               G  Am
Hey lady, you lady, cursing at your life
         F                    G   Am
You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
F                   G            C            G       Am
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
         D
But, I wish someone had talked to me
         F                  G
Like I wanna talk to you.


Chorus:
         C                  G             Am                Em
Oh, I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
F                   C                  Dm               G
I took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
         C                  G             Am                Em
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free
F           C               Dm             C
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me

Verse 2:
G            F           C         G     Am
Please lady, please lady, don't just walk away
         F                    G                Am
'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
F           G                C     G       Am
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
          D                                      F                    G
Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived million lies.


Chorus 2:
         C                   G                      Am                    Em
Oh, I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece where I sipped champagne on a yacht
  F                   C              Dm                    G
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and Showed them what I've got
            C                   G                         Am                         Em
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't supposed to see
F           C              Dm              C
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me.

G Am Em F C Dm C


Chorus 3:
               C                 G                   Am                      Em
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
       F                     C                  Dm              G
But I.. I took the sweet life I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
           C                 G                  Am                   Em
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that cost too much to be free, hey lady...
F           C               Dm             C
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me.

Repeat, fade and enjoy
