E              D                  E
Dear Mother, Can you hear me whining?
E               D             G                 B
It's been 3 whole weeks since I have left your home
E              D                    E
This sudden fear has left me trembling
E               D              G              B
'Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
  G                     B
 And I'm feeling all alone...

    Припев:

    E              G                    A               C
    Pay attention to the cracked streets, and broken homes
    E                    G             B
    Some call it slums, some call it nice...
    E               G                      A
    I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my
    C      E                B
    home...Welcome to Paradise

E           D                    E
A gunshot rings out at the station
E          D                G               B
Another urchin snaps, and left dead on his own
E             D                    E
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
E                  D                 G             B
For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home
          G         B
And I'm never gonna go...


E             D                     E
Dear Mother, Can you hear me laughing?
E               D                G                 B
It's been six whole months since I have left your home
E             D                    E
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
E                   D              G              B
For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home
          G         B
And I'm never gonna go...
