Michael Jackson - Man In The Mirror

Intro: G D Em D C   
     
     
G         D             Em  D              C    
I'm gonna make a change,    for once in my life    
           G         D                  Em          D             C    
It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference, gonna make it right    
     G        D            Em            D           C    
As I, turn up the collar on  my favorite winter coat, this wind is blowin' my mind    
          G           D                Em            D    
I see the kids in the street, with not enough to eat    
          C    
Who am I, to be blind, pretending not to see their needs    
     
     
Am7                  C    
 a summer's disregard, a broken bottle top    
C                 C    
 And a one man's soul    
     Am7                      C    
They follow each other on the wind ya' know    
            C                 D    
'Cause they got nowhere to go    
                              G    
That's why I want you to know    
     
Chorus:    
G    G                 C          D    
 I'm starting with the man in the mirror    
G    G             C          D    
 I'm asking him to change his ways    
G       G                  C        A    
 And no message could have been any clearer    
         Dm    
 If you wanna make the world a better place    
                                               G  D    
 Take a look at yourself, and then make a change    
     
Interlude:     
     Em         D                 C                 D    
     Na na na,  na na na na, na na, na na, uh-huh    
     
     
G           D         Em        D            C    
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love, It's time that I realize    
          G            D           Em             D    
There are some with no home, not a nickel to loan    
            C    
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?    
     
     
Am7                     C    
 A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart    
C                 C    
 And a washed-out dream    
     Am7                       C    
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya' see    
            C                 D    
'Cause they got no place to be    
                               G    
That's why I'm starting with me
