[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

[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

[Bridge]

(Just knock on the guitar or silence the strings for this part) 1 strum = /
In the song it sounds like a clap

    ///        /       //         /
**  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]

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

[Outro]

(If you plan on performing this in public, I might suggest ending it on this point after the last D)

     ///        /       //         /
**  I like mine with lettuce and tomato
     //         /       //         /

    //          /       //         /
**  Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
    //          /       //         /
**  Well good God almighty which way do I steer
