Madness - Michael Caine chords
Start Jamming...
My [D] name is Michael.
I am [C] Michael Caine.
Wicked, ya [Ab] ya ya.
[D] [Bb]
Wicked, [Gb] ya ya ya.
Wicked, ya ya ya.
I am Michael Caine.
[F] [C] He's walking where I'm afraid, I don't know.
[Ab] I see the violent jumping from the windows.
[G] He's panicking, [Bb] I hear [Gb] somebody scream.
[F] [C] He picks up useless paper,
and puts it in my [Ab] pocket.
I'm trying very hard to keep my fingers [G] clean.
I can't [Bb] remember, tell me what's [Gb] his name.
[F] My name is Michael [C] Caine.
And [G] all I wanted was [F] a word, a poem [Am] to pray.
[G] [C] And all [G] I wanted was [F] a word, a poem [Am] to pray [G] to be.
[C] The sun is laughing, it's another broken [Ab] morning.
I see a shadow and pull out the trying [G] warning.
He didn't [Bb] see me, he just turned [Gb] away.
[F] [Bb] The [C] quiet fellow [Eb] follows, points his finger [D] straight at you.
[C] He has [Bb] sacrificed [Eb] his blood, he is [D] throwing it all away.
[Eb] [Bb]
[D] [Gb] The [F] pain [Ab]
[E] is [Eb] killing me.
I am Michael Caine.
[C] And all I [G] wanted was [F] a word, a [Am] poem to pray [G] to be.
[C] And all [G] I wanted was [F] a word, a poem to pray [G] to be.
[C] If there's a number who walks round and round [Ab] in sorrow,
there is no place he can ever call [G] his own.
He seems [Bb] to jump at the sound [Gb] of the phone.
[F] And now
[C] he's staring at the window, there's nothing he [Ab] can do.
All he wants is lovers to remain.
[G] He [Bb] can't remember his [Gb] own name.
[F] My name [C] is Michael Caine.
And all [G] I wanted was a [F] word, a [Am] poem to [G] pray
[C] to be.
And [G] all I wanted was [F] a word, a poem [Am] to pray [G] to be.
[C] And [G] all I wanted was [C] a word, a poem [Am] to [G] pray [C] to be.
And all [G] I wanted was [F] a word, a poem [C] to pray [G] to be.
[Cm]
[C] [Bm]
[C] And all I wanted was [F] a word, a poem [C] to [Em] pray [C] to be.
And all I [G] wanted was a [F] word, a poem to pray [G] to be.
