Biografía:
The Temptations (Detroit, 1961), grupo de música soul, rhythm and blues y pop, aunque se han acercado igualmente a distintas fusiones de estilos musicales y al funk con cierta carga política. Fue el más importante grupo vocal masculino de los años sesenta.
Estuvo inicialmente formado por cinco cantantes a partir de la fusión de dos grupos de Detroit, the Primes y the Distants. Otis Williams, Elbridge (conocido como El, o Al) Bryant y Melvin Franklin eran ya unos veteranos de la escena musical de Detroit cuando formaron the Distants

[Verse 1]
D C
Hey mister, You mister
G D Em
I just want a dime
C D Em
'Cause I need a cup of coffee and a moment of your time
C D G D Em
I can tell your raising hell the way I used to do
A
But I wish someone woulda' talked to me
C D
Like I wanna talk to you
[Verse 2]
G D
I've been to Georgia and California
Em Bm
and Anywhere I could run
C G
I stole a woman in Tennessee
Am D
and we made love in the sun
G D
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
Em Bm
Because I had to be free
C G Am C G
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
[Verse 3]
D C
Thanks mister, thanks mister
G D Em
But please don't walk away
C D Em
'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
C D G D Em
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
A
Won't you share a part of an old mans heart
C D
On the day before he dies
[Verse 4]
G D
I've been to China & Asia Minor
Em Bm
On any ship that would sail
C G
I made some noise with some good old boys
Am D
We wrecked a southern jail
G D
I've seen the best men crawl and some teardrops fall
Em Bm
There ain't nothing I ain't seen
C G Am C G
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
[Guitar Instrumental]
C D G D Em
A
C D
[Verse 5]
G D
I've even been to marriage. Where children cry for
Em Bm
someone they couldn't find
C G
Never knowing that I was searching
Am D
For things I left behind
G D
I thought my heart could wait but I learned too late
Em Bm
Only love can make people free
C G Am C G
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me (x2)
