[Chorus]
Am
The man is gone
E
And mama says
C F
She can't live without him
Am
The man is gone
E
And mama says
C F
There is no life without him
[Verse]
Am E
She has no one to stop her tears
D B7
A man who heals and calms down her fears
Am E
She needs to wake up in her man's arms
D B7
And to be loved just like a child
C B7
Ooh ooh
Dm Am
Ooh ooh
[Chorus]
Am
The man is gone
E
And mama says
C F
That she can't live without him
Am
The man is gone
E
And mama says
C F
There is no life without him
[Bridge]
Am E
How can I tell her the way I feel?
D B7
I'm afraid she'd be hurt and sink
Am E
It pisses me off, it drives me mad
D B7
That she lets herself feel so bad
C B7
Ooh ooh
Dm Am
Ooh ooh
Am E C F (Em)
Eleggua ko, Eleggua ko aña, Eleggua ko, Eleggua ko aña
Am E C F (Em)
Eleggua ko, Eleggua ko aña, Alaroye masankio, Eleggua ko aña
[Chorus]
Am
The man is gone
E
And mama says
C F
That she can't live without him
Am
The man is gone
E
And mama says
C F C
There is no life without him
