Verse 1
F#
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.
We hardly had enough food
or room to sleep.
It was hard times,
F#m
Needed something to ease
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
I took to cloud nine,
I'm doin' fine,
F#m
F#
up here on cloud nine.
F#m
Listen one more time I'm doin' fine,
F#
F#m
F#
up here on cloud nine.
Folks down there tell me,
They say, "give yourself a chance son,
B
don't let life pass you by".
F#
But the world of reality is a rat race
B
where only the strongest survive,
F#
It's a dog eat dog world,
C#
Listen! it ain't even safe no more
to walk the streets at night,
F#m
F#
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine.
