Cheeseburger in Paradise Jimmy Buffett
By Jimmy Buffett
Intro - Bm A Bm G Bm A D
Tried to am[G]end my carn[A]ivorous h[D]abits
[G]Made it nearly [A]seventy [D]days
Losin' we[G]ight without s[A]peed, eatin' [D]sunflower seeds
[E]Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' u[A]p rays
But at [G]night I'd have[A] these wo[D]nderful dreams
[G]Some kind of [A]sensuous tre[Bm]at
Not zuc[G]chini, fettu[D]cini or bu[G]lgar wh[D]eat
But a [G]big warm b[D]un and a huge[A] hunk of meat[D]
Chorus:
C[G]heese[A]burger in [D]paradise
[G]Heaven on [A]Earth with an o[D]nion slice
[G]Not too par[A]ticular, no[D]t too precise
I'm just a [G]Cheese[D]burger in [A]parad[D]ise[Bm] [A] [D]
Heard about the old time sailor men
They eat the same thing again and again
Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead
Well it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn
But times change for sailors these days
When I'm in port I get what I need
Not just Havanas or bananas or daiquiris
But that American creation on which I feed
Chorus:
Cheeseburger in Paradise
Medium rare with mustard be nice
Heaven on Earth with an onion slice
I'm just a Cheeseburger in Paradise
(Guitar Tacet)
I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and French fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well good God almighty which way do I steer for my
Chorus:
Cheeseburger in Paradise
Makin' the best of every virtue and vice
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice to get a
Cheeseburger in Paradise
I need a Cheeseburger in Paradise
I'm just a Cheeseburger in Paradise
Repeat intro
Repeat Guitar Tacet
