[ G5 ] From a week in paradise [ C5 ] I got used to

[ D5 ] Holdin' you close ev'ry [ G5 ] night

As we come down from the clouds and [ C5 ] touch the ground

You're [ D5 ] squeezin' my hand so tight

[ C5 ] But if paradise is [ D5 ] behind us where we [ G5 ] learned less is really [ E5 ] more

[ C5 ] And all we needed was each [ D5 ] other

[ C5 ] Then what the [ D5 ] hell are we comin' back [ G5 ] for

Chorus:

Let's turn around and [ D5 ] run

Back to the sea and the [ G5 ] sun

D?n't need much to have [ D5 ] fun

Just some lotion and some [ G5 ] rum

We can snorkel for [ C5 ] free

Or make love on the [ E5 ] beach

Lay around in the [ C5 ] sun

Smartest thing we've ever [ D5 ] done

Let's turn around and [ G5 ] run


This pile of a city's so full of people 
Buzzin' around like flies
All stressed out in their ev'ryday world
Dressed up in their suits and ties
Tryin' to achieve the next level
With a bonus they can buy a new car
Or a house where they keep their family
They think those things are who they are... 

Chorus

We were suffering from a delusion
That we could leave all this behind
No choice but collect our baggage
Get ready for that 8 to 5 grind
As we lugged our way to the exit
I could see the question in her eyes
So I answered with a smile and I grabbed her hand
Last plane back to paradise

Chorus 2X


Lay around in the [ C5 ] sun

Smartest thing we've ever [ D5 ] done

Let's turn around and [ G5 ] run!
