Tried to amend my carnivorous habits 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                         G                  A            Bm
But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams some kind of sensuous treat
       G                 D        G        D                G            D             A                 D
Not zucchini, fettucini or bulgar wheat but a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat

Not too particular, not too precise I'm just a . . . cheeseburger in paradise

G                        A          D                                  G              A             D
Heard about the old time sailor men they'd eat the same thing again and 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                G               G                 A             Bm
But times change, sailors these days, 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

  Cheeseburger in paradise medium rare with mustard 'dbe nice
G               A                  D                                   G       D            A    D
Heaven on Earth with an onion slice I'm just a . . . cheeseburger in paradise
