None of them
{Verse 1}
Dsus2 Cadd9
Hey lady, you lady
G D/F# Em D
Cursing at your life
Am G D/F# D
You're a discontented mother
Em
And a regimented wife
C D
I've no doubt you dream about
G D/F# Em D
The things you never do
A7
But I wish someone had talked to me
Cadd9
Like I wanna talk to you
{Chorus}
D G D/F#
Ooh, I've been to Georgia and California
Em Bm
And anywhere I could run
C G/B
Took the hand of a preacher man
Am7 D
And we made love in the sun
G D/F#
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
Em Bm
Because I had to be free
C G/B Am7 G
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
D Cadd9 G (G F#m Em)
{Verse 2}
D Cadd9
Please lady, please lady
G D/F# Em D
Don't just walk away
Am G D/F# D
'Cause I have this need to tell you
Em
Why I'm all alone today
C D
I can see so much of me
G D/F# Em D
Still living in your eyes
A7
Won't you share a part of a weary heart
Cadd9
That has lived a million lives?
{Chorus}
D G D/F#
Oh, I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
Em Bm
Where I sipped champagne on a yacht
C G/B
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
Am7 D
And showed 'em what I've got
G D/F#
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things
Em Bm
That a woman ain't s'posed to see
C G/B Am7 G
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
{Bridge -- repeat G D C D throughout}
Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie
A fantasy we create about people and places
As we'd like them to be
But you know what truth is?
It's that little baby you're holding
And it's that man you fought with this morning
The same one you're going to make love with tonight
That's truth, that's love
{Chorus}
D G D/F#
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
Em Bm
That might have made me complete
C
But I... I took the sweet life
G/B Am7 D
I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
G D/F#
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
Em Bm
That cost too much to be free, hey lady...
C G/B Am7 D G
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
D/F# Em Bm
