[Gm] Is this the real life?
[C] Is this just fantasy?
[F7] Caught in a landslide,
[Bb] No escape from reality.
[Gm] Open your eyes,
[Bb7] Look up to the skies and [Eb] see,
[Cm] I'm just a poor boy, [F] I need no sympathy,
Because [B] I'm easy [Bb] come, [A] easy [Bb] go,
[B] Little [Bb] high, [A] little [Bb] low,
[Eb] Any way the [Bb] wind blows
[Bbdim] doesn't really [F7] matter to me, [Bb6] to me.
[Bb6] Mama, just [Gm9] killed a man,
Put a [Cm] gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger, now he's [F] dead.
[Bb6] Mama, life had [Gm9] just begun,
But [Cm7] now I've gone and [Cmmaj7]thrown it all [F] away.
[Eb] Mama, [Gm7] [Cm] ooh,
Didn't [Ab] mean to make you cry,
If [Bb] I'm not back [Bb7] again this time [Eb] tomorrow,
Carry [Gm7] on, carry [Cm7] on as if [Abm7] nothing really [Eb] matters.
[Bb6] Too late, my [Gm9] time has come,
Sends [Cm] shivers down my spine,
Body's aching all the [F] time.
[Bb6] Goodbye, everybody, I've [Gm9] got to go,
Gotta [Cm7] leave you [Cmmaj7]all behind and face the [F] truth.
[Eb] Mama, [Gm7] [Cm] ooh (any way the wind blows),
I [Ab6] don't wanna die,
I [Bb] sometimes [Bb7] wish I'd never been born at [Eb] all.
[Gm7] [Cm] [Ab6] [Bb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] [Cm] [Fm7] [Bb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Eb] Mama, [Gm7] [Cm] ooh (any way the wind blows),
I [Ab6] don't wanna die,
I [Bb] sometimes [Bb7] wish I'd never been born at [Ab] all. [Abm6] [Eb]
