Verse 1
C
Childhood part of my life,
it wasn't very pretty
You see, I was born and raised
in the slums of the city
It was a one room shack that slept ten
other children besides me
F
We hardly had enough food or room to sleep
C
Cm
It was hard times
C
Needed something to ease
my troubled mind
Listen! my father didn't know
the meaning of work
He disrespected mama,
and treated us like dirt
I left home, seekin' a job that
I never did find
Depressed and downhearted
F
I took to cloud nine
C
I'm doin' fine, up here on cloud nine
F
C
Listen one more time I'm doin' fine,
Cm
C
up here on cloud nine
Folks down there tell me
They say, "give yourself a chance son,
F
don't let life pass you by"
Cm
C
But the world of reality is a rat race
F
where only the strongest survive
C
It's a dog eat dog world,
F
and that ain't no lie
G
Listen, it ain't even safe no more
to walk the streets at night
C
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine
F
Let me tell you about cloud nine
