Start Jamming...
[Bm] I'm going my own way.
A little more hair in the other side.
Yaaah!
[D]
You're sleeping, [A] son, I know, but really this [Bm] can't wait.
I want it to [F#m] explain before it gets [Bm] too late.
For your mother [G] and me, love has [F#m] finally died.
This is no [Em] happy home, but God [F#] knows how I try.
[F#] Because [Bm] you're all I have, [Em] my boy.
You are [A] my life, my pride, [D] my joy.
And if I [G#] stay, I stay because [C#]
of you, my [B] boy.
[C#] [F#]
[D] I know it's hard to [A] understand why did we [Bm] ever start.
We're more like [F#m] strangers now, each acting [Bm] out a part.
I have [G] laughed, I have cried, I've lost [F#m] every game.
Taken all [Em] I can take, but I'll stay here [F#] just the same.
Because [Bm] you're all I have, [Em]
[A] [D] my joy.
And if I [G#] stay, I stay [C#] because of you, my [F#] boy.
[D]
Sleep on, you [A] haven't heard a word.
Perhaps [Bm] it's just as well.
Why spoil [F#m] your little dreams?
Why put [Bm] you through the hell?
[G] Life is no fairy tale, as one [F#m] day you will know.
But now [Em] you're just a child, I'll stay [F#] here and watch you grow.
Because [Bm] you're all I [Em]
[A] have, my pride, [D] my joy.
And if I [G#] stay, I stay [C#] because of you, my [F#] boy.
Because [Bm] you're all [Em]
[A] my pride.
[B]
And if [G#] I stay, I stay [C#] because of you, [F#] my boy.
Because [Bm] you're all I have, my [Em] joy.
You are my life, my pride, my [D] joy.
And if I [G#] stay, I stay because [C#] of you, [C#] my boy.
[F#]
[Bm] [Em] Because you are my [A] life.
[D] And if I
[G#] Wah, wah, [F#] wah, wah, what do you mean?
Huh?
Huh?
I done told you to get that god damn thing in two takes.
I can't sing it no more.
