   When I was born my mother died  

        |Gmaj7   C#m7/5-   |Cmaj7  
She said bye-bye baby, bye-bye  

F#        |G#m              |  |  
   I said, 'Where you goin'?  

F#dim Em  |D  
I'm   just born'  

             |E       E/D#      |E/D                
She said I'll only be gone for a while  
   
   C#7            |F#9           |  
My mother loved to leave in style  

B                        |      |E7 |A7 |E7 |  
  That's why God made the movies  


A7             |E7                   |B7/5+   
   Well I laid around in my swaddling clothes  

         |Gmaj7           C#m7/5-        |Cmaj7  
Until the doctor came and turned out the light  

F#       |G#m          |    
   Then I packed my bag  

   |F#dim Em |D  
And my    nametag  

   |E          E/D#    |E/D                
And stole away into the night  

C#7                |F#9           |  
Hoping things would work out right  

B                        |      |E7 |  
  That's why God made the movies  


 E       D/F#  E/G#   |A   |  
 Say you will, say you will  

            G#m     F#m    |Emaj7        |  
 Say you'll take me to your loving breast  

                                |F#m7      |  
 Say you'll nourish me with your tenderness  

B9                             |C#m |  
   The way the ladies sometimes do  


B E       D/F#   E/G#   |A    |  
  Say you won't, say you won't  

               G#m      F#m   |Emaj7    |  
 Say you won't leave me for no other man  

                            |F#m7  E B/D#  
 Say you'll love me just the way I am  

 Tacet                 |  
 Say you will, baby now  

                           |E7  |  
 Say you will, just say you will  

A7        |E7  |  
   Say you will  


A7           |E7            |B7/5+   
   When I was born my mother died  

        |Gmaj7   C#m7/5-   |Cmaj7  
She said bye-bye baby, bye-bye  

F#    |G#m           |    
   And since that day  

    |F#dim Em |D  
I've paid  my  way  

     |E       E/D#      |E/D                
The notorious boy of the wild  

 C#7          |F#9                       |  
Adopted by the wolves when he was a child  

B                |                |  
  That's why God.  That's why God.  

                        |E7    |  
 That's why God made the movies
