1. Sometimes I drink to get happy, sometimes I drink for my soul.

      Am                                                   G

    Why can’t you take me, oh, Mama, back to the big wide world ?

   Am             C                    Em                D

    I was concerned that my life was controlled,

   Am             C                    Em                 D

    I was concerned, I was thirteen years old.

 

Am               C                  - G                           D

    Take me home, Mama, back to the big wide world,

                      Am                     G                    Am      - G

the big wide world, big wide world, big wide world.

 

   Am                                                  G

2. I can go back when I’m sleeping, no one denies me the right,

          Am                                               G

    it’s hard to be there in the story, it’s harder to shut up at night.

   Am             C                    Em                D

    I was concerned that my life was controlled,

   Am             C                    Em                 D

    I was concerned, I was thirteen years old.
