Madonna

Dm                       C           G
There was a time I was happy in my life
Dm                       C           G
There was time I believed I'd live forever
Dm                       C           G
There was a time that I prayed to Jesus Christ
Dm                       C           G
There was a time I had a mother it was nice

Am              Dm               G
Oh mother why aren't you here with me
Am              Dm               G
No one else saw the things that you could see
Am              Dm               G
I'm trying hard to dry my tears
Am              Dm               G
Yes father you know I'm not so free

Dm                       C           G
Nobody else would ever take the place of you
Dm                       C           G
Nobody else could do the things that you could do
Dm                       C           G
No one else I guess could hurt me like you did
Dm                       C           G
I didn't understand I was just a kid

Am              Dm               G
Oh mother why aren't you here with me
Am              Dm               G
No one else saw the things that you could see
Am              Dm               G
I'm trying hard to dry my tears
Am              Dm               G
Yes father you know I'm not so free



Am
I got to give it up
Dm               G
Find someone to love me
Am
I got to let it go
Dm               G
Find someone that I can care for
Am
I got to give it up
Dm               G
Find someone to love me
Am
I got to let it go
Dm               G
Find someone that I can care for

Am
My mother died when I was five
Dm            G
And all I did was sit and cry
Am
I cried and cried and cried all day
Dm          G
Until the neighbours went away
Am
They couldn't take my loneliness
Dm G
I couldn't take their phoniness
Am
My father had to go to work
Dm G
I used to think he was a jerk
Am
I didn't know his heart was broken
Dm           G
And not another word was spoken
Am
He became a shadow of
Dm            G
The father I was dreaming of
Am
I made a vow that I would never need another person ever
Dm                   G
Turned my heart into a cage a victim of a kind of rage

Am Dm G (2X)
Am
I've got to give it up
Dm       G       Am
Find somebody to love
Dm           G
Find someone that I can care for

Am
I got to give it up
Dm          G
I got to give it up
Am
I got to give it up
I got to give it up
Dm       G
I got to give it up
