… Madonna
Life is so crazy
You've been through a lot
I'll tell you stories sometimes, you know?


Verse 1 - Madonna:
      C minorCm
Seemed like yesterday
    F minorFm              C minorCm
I was a baby on the street, I took a holiday
   F minorFm               C minorCm
I was steppin' to the beat, I had to pay my rent
    F minorFm             C minorCm
On the Lower East Side, I threw my tag around
      F minorFm              C minorCm
Let B-boys take me for a ride, I started writing songs
    F minorFm                 C minorCm
I kinda got into the groove, they tried to criticize
  F minorFm              C minorCm
My every single move, but then I realized
   F minorFm                C minorCm
I had nothing left to lose, it took me by surprise
   F minorFm
When I became the news (whoa)

Pre-Chorus - Madonna:
   AbAb
I was fearless like a renegade
    Eb MajorEb      C minorCm
I had a feeling that I can't explain
     AbAb
I didn't listen to what people said (whatcha do)
Eb MajorEb        C minorCm
I came, I saw, I conquered
   AbAb
I was constant as a northern star
    Eb MajorEb      C minorCm
I had a fire burning in my heart
    AbAb
I never gave up fighting in the dark (yeah)
Eb MajorEb        C minorCm
I came, I saw, I conquered (let's go)

I came, I saw, I conquered (uh)

Verse 2 - Madonna:
 C minorCm
I expressed myself
      F minorFm                C minorCm
Came like a virgin down the aisle, exposed my naked ass
   F minorFm                C minorCm
And I did it with a smile, and when it came to sex
     F minorFm
I knew I walked the borderline
      C minorCm           F minorFm
And when I struck a pose, all the gay boys lost their minds
 C minorCm              F minorFm
I justified my love, I made you say a little prayer
      C minorCm          F minorFm
They had me crucified, you know I had to take you there
     C minorCm             F minorFm
I opened up my heart, I learned the power of goodbye
    C minorCm         F minorFm
I saw a ray of light, music saved my life (music saved my life)

In 1994 (what)

I came through the door with that born beats versus scratches
   F minorFm
Verbally murdered rappers (murdered, murdered, murdered)

            F minorFm
