[Verse 1:]
G minorGm      C majorC D#D#        A#A#
the question is wouldn't mama be proud?
there's a silver lining in the corporate cloud
and the pretty post that you're taking as as an NCO
[Bridge:]
C majorC        D#D#
of the great pretender
          G minorGm
i should sure think so
[Chorus:]
     A#A#   C majorC D#D#
wouldn't mama be proud?

[Verse 2:]
G minorGm        C majorC   D#D#         A#A#
"can I take your order?" asks the heavenly host
ticket to the jetstream blowing coast to coast
the long stem glasses, a movie and a pleasant dream in mid air
[Bridge:]
C majorC            D#D#
"you gotta tell me quickly
         G minorGm
'cos we're almost there"
[Chorus:]
     A#A#    C majorC D#D#
wouldn't mama be proud?

[Break:]
D#D#         D MajorD
pointed out of the window
A#A#       C majorC
at the sky gone black
D#D#            D MajorD
"kid you're on the right track"

G minorGm C majorC D#D# A#A# (2x)

[Verse 3:]
G minorGm      C majorC    D#D#          A#A#
if i send you postcards from the side of the road
photographs of moving parts about to implode
if i crawl to keep it together like you say you know i can do
[Bridge:]
C majorC         D#D#
to transmit a moment
      G minorGm
from me to you
[Chorus:]
     A#A#    C majorC D#D# G minorGm
wouldn't mama be proud?
wouldn't mama be proud?
wouldn't mama be proud?
wouldn't mama be proud?
