Hey lady, [Eb] you [Gm] lady, cursing at your life You're a [F] discontented mother
[Gm] and a rich invented
wife [Eb] I've no [F] doubt you dream [Gm] about the things you'll
never do [C] But I wish someone had to talk to me [F] like
I want to talk to you
[Bb] I've been to [F] Georgia and California [Gm] and anywhere
[Dm] I could run
[Eb] Took the hand [Bb] of a preacher man [Cm] and we made
love [F] in the [G] sun But I [Bb] ran out of [F] places and friendly [Gm] faces
because I had [Dm] to be free
[Eb] I've been [Gm] to paradise [Cm] but I've [F] never been
[Bb] to [F] me Please [F] lady, [Eb] please [Bb] lady, don't [Gm] just walk
away [Cm] Cause I [Eb] have this need [F] to tell you [Gm] why I'm
all alone [G] today [Eb] I can see [F] so much of me [Bb] still living in [Gm] your
[F] eyes [C] Won't you share a part of a weary heart [F] that
has lived a million lies?
[A] Oh, [Bb] I've been to Nice [F] and the Isle of Greece
[Gm] while I sipped champagne [Dm] on a yacht [Eb] I moved like Harlow [Bb] and Monte Carlo [Cm] and showed
them what [F] I've got I've been [Bb] undressed by kings [F] and I've seen
some things [Gm] that a woman ain't [Dm] supposed to see
[Eb] I've been [Gm] to paradise [Cm] but I've never been [Bb] to me
[F] Hey, [Eb] you know what paradise is?
[F] It's a lie, a [Bb] fantasy we create about people
and places as we [F] like them to be But you [Eb] know what truth is?
It's [F] that little
baby you're holding and it's that [Bb] man you fought with this morning, [F] the same one you're
going to make love with [Eb] tonight That's truth, that's [G] love
Sometimes [Bb] I've been to crying [F] for unborn children [Gm] that made [Dm] me complete
But [Eb] I, I took the sweet [Bb] life and never knew I'd [Cm] be bitter from the [F] sweet
I [Bb] spent my life exploring [F] the sun,
[Gm] to [Dm] be free
Hey, [Eb] lay it all [Bb] to [Eb] paradise
[Dm]
[Cm] But I've never [Eb] [Gm] been
