[Verse]
G A D
Tried to amend my carnivorous habits
G A D
Made it nearly seventy days
G A D
Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds
E A
Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays
G A D
But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams
G A Bm
Some kind of sensuous treat
G D G D
Not zucchini, fettucini or bulgar wheat
G D A D
But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat
[Chorus]
G A D
Cheeseburger in paradise
G A D
Heaven on Earth with an onion slice
G A D
Not too particular, not too precise
G D A D
I'm just a Cheeseburger in paradise
[Instrumental]
Bm |||| A | D |
[Verse]
G A D
Heard about the old time sailor men
G A D
They eat the same thing again and again
G A D
Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead
E A
Well it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn
G A D
But times have changed for sailors these days,
G A Bm
When I'm in port I get what I need
G D G D
Not just Havanas or bananas or daiquiris
G D A D
But that American creation on which I feed
[Chorus]
G A D
Cheeseburger in Paradise
G A D
Medium rare with mustard be nice
G A D
Heaven on Earth with an onion slice
G D A D
I'm just a Cheeseburger in Paradise

(knock on the guitar)
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

Cheeseburger in Paradise
G A D
Makin' the best of every virtue and vice
G A D
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice to get a

I need a Cheeseburger in Paradise
G D A D
I'm just a Cheeseburger in Paradise
