Never Been to Me
guitar chords lyrics
Verse 1:
F D# A# F Gm
Hey lady, you lady, cursing at your life
D# F Gm
You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
D# F A# F Gm
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
C
But, I wish someone had talked to me
D# F
Like I wanna talk to you.
Reff 1:
A# F Gm Dm
Oh, I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
D# A# Cm F
I took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
A# F Gm Dm
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free
D# A# Cm A#
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
Verse 2:
F D# A# F Gm
Please lady, please lady, don't just walk away
D# F Gm
'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
D# F A# F Gm
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
C D# F
Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived million lies.
Reff 2:
A# F Gm Dm
Oh, I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece where I sipped champagne on a yacht
D# A# Cm F
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and Showed them what I've got
A# F Gm Dm
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't supposed to see
D# A# Cm A#
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me.
F-Gm-Dm-D#-A#-Cm-A#
Reff 3:
A# F Gm Dm
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
D# A# Cm F
But I.. I took the sweet life I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
A# F Gm Dm
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that cost too much to be free, hey lady...
D# A# Cm A#
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me.
