D././ A G././ A
D A G A (repetitive sequence)
She struts into the room
Well, I don't know her
But with a magnifying glance
I just sort of look her over
D A G A
We have a drink or two
Well, maybe three
And then suddenly she starts telling me
Her life story, she says
G G6 G G6
"Baby, if you wanna be my lover
G G6 G G6 F# Bm A
You better take me home
G A A6 A A6
'Cause it's a long, long way to paradise
G G6 G G6
And I'm still on my own"
A/D(V) - G/D(III) - D - G/D(III)
A/D(V) - D - A/D(V) - G/D(III)
D A G A
I told her that I came
From Detroit City
And I played guitar
In a long-haired rock 'n' roll band
D A G A
She asked me why
The singer's name was Alice
I said, listen baby
You really wouldn't understand, then I said
G G6 G G6
"Baby, if you wanna be my lover
G G6 G G6 F# Bm A
You better take me home
G A A6 A A6
'Cause it's a long, long way to paradise
G G6 G G6
And I'm still on my own"

"Oh baby, if you wanna be my lover
G G6 G G6 ( F# - Bm - A )
You better take me home
G A A6 A A6 G
'Cause it's a long, long way to paradise
G6 G G6
And I'm still on my own, own"
