C 
Am 
C 
Hey Lady, you lady,
G 
cursing at your life
Em 
Am 
C 
D 
You're a discontented mother
Em 
and a regimented wife
C 
D 
I've no doubt you dream
G 
Bm 
Em 
about the things you never  do
G 
A 
But I wish someone had a talk to me
C 
like I wanna talk to you
D 
G 
Ooh, I've been to Georgia
D 
and California
Em 
Bm 
and anywhere I could run
C 
G 
Took the hand of a preacher man
C 
Am 
C 
D 
and we made love in the sun

But I ran out of places

and friendly faces
Em 
because I had to be free
Bm

I've been to paradise

Please lady, please lady,

Am 
G 
Cause I have this need to tell you
D

why I'm all alone today

still living in your eyes
G 
D 
A 
Won't you share a part of a weary heart
D 
Dsus4 
that has lived a        million lives?
D 
G 
Oh, I've been to Nice
D 
and the Isle of Greece
Em 
Bm 
while I sip champagne on a yacht
C 
G 
I move like Haro in Monte Carlo
Am 
and show them what I got
D 
G 
I've been undressed by kings
D 
And I've seen some things
Em 
Bm 
that a woman ain't supposed to see
C 
G 
I've been to paradise,
Am 
C 
G 
but they've never been to me
Gsus4 
Hey, you know what paradise is?
G 
It's a lie.
A fantasy we create
about people and places
as we'd like them to be.
C 
G 
But you know what truth is?
It's that little baby you're holding.
And that's that man you
fought with this morning.
The same one you're gonna
make love with tonight.
That's truth. That's love.

Sometimes I've been to crying

That might have made me complete

But I took the sweet life I never knew
Am 
I've been bitter from the sweet

I  spend my life exploring

A sudden pouring that cost
Bm 
too much to be free
