capo 2 — sounds 2 semitones higherIntro
Verse 1
My friends back home all said I'm crazy.
That's too much money for one week.
But here I am with sand between my toes.
And suddenly my budget doesn't seem so bleak.
As I watch the sunset paint the sky,
I realize some things you just can't put a price on.
Chorus
I spent it all on paradise.
Maxed out my card, but I don't think twice.
Emptied my savings for these turquoise views,
And I do it all again, yes, I would
I spent it all on paradise. These memories are worth the price.
The treasure I found in this douchy life.
Makes every penny seem so small, I realize.
When you spend it all on paradise.
Verse 2
My boss called twice. I sent a voicemail.
My emails pile up on red and cold.
While I'm aboard the SW with Tommy, watching dolphins leave.
A sight to behold. Sound of tension and pride
As the island breeze calms my mind,
I realize some wealth can't be stored in any bank.
Chorus
I spent it all on paradise.
Maxed out my card, but I don't think twice.
Emptied my savings for these turquoise views,
And I do it all again, yes, I would
I spent it all on paradise. These memories are worth the price.
The treasure I found in this douchy life.
Makes every penny seem so small, I realize.
When you spend it all on paradise.
Verse 3
Back when my neighbor bought a new car.
Another friend renovated her home.
But I chose something they can't own.
The feeling of true freedom of letting go.
I got turquoise by the locals say no hurries,
No worries, no stress today.
When Tommy Coconut pours me that rum,
I know exactly where my money's gone.
Last night we danced beneath the stars.
Today we snorkeled at Tugboat Beach.
Bridge
Some say vacations just a waste of cash.
But they don't know what this feeling can teach.
As I feel the happiness in my soul,
I realize no purchase ever made me feel this whole.
Chorus
I spent it all on paradise.
Maxed out my card, but I don't think twice.
Emptied my savings for these turquoise views,
And I do it all again, yes, I would
I spent it all on paradise. These memories are worth the price.
The treasure I found in this douchy life.
Makes every penny seem so small, I realize.
When you spend it all on paradise.
Outro
And when I'm back at my desk next Monday,
My tan will fade, but not what I gained.
A piece of paradise lives in my heart.
The best investment I have ever made.
Chorus
I spent it all on paradise.
Maxed out my card, but I don't think twice.
These photos don't capture the piece I found
But I do it all again, yes, I would
I spent it all on paradise. These memories are worth the price.
Tommy Coconut showed me the douchy way.
And my only regret I realize
Is I can't spend it all on paradise
Every single day.
Some treasures can't be bought only experienced.
