7...MAN IN THE MIRROR... by Michael Jackson
------------------------...................
*from 'Bad' (1987)*
Verse 1:
G D/F# Em7
I'm gonna make a change,
D/F# Cadd9
For once in my life.
G D/F#
It's gonna feel real good;
Em7 D/F# Cadd9
Gonna make a difference, gonna make it right.
Verse 2:
G D/F#
As I turn up the collar,
Em D/F#
On my favorite winter coat,
Cadd9
This wind is blowing my mind.
G D/F#
I see the kids in the streets,
Em7 D/F#
With not e-nough to eat,
Cadd9
Who am I to be blind? Pretending not to see their needs.
Bridge 1:
Am7 Dsus4
A summer disregard, a broken bottle top,
Cadd9 Dsus
And a one man's soul.
Am7 Dsus4
They follow each other on the wind, ya' know,
c C/D
'Cos they got nowhere to go; that's why I want you to know;
Chorus 1:
G GaddA/B Cadd9 C/D
I'm starting with the man in the mirror;
G GaddA/B Cadd9 C/D
I'm asking him to change his ways.
G GaddA/B c C#dim
And no message, could have been any clearer;
D7+9
If you wanna make the world a better place,
G
Take a look at yourself and then make a change.
Interlude:
G D/F# Em D/F# C/D D Em7 D/F#
Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah.
Verse 2:
G D/F# Em D/F#
I've been a victim of, a selfish kind of love,
Cadd9
It's time that I realise;
G D/F# Em7 D/F#
That there are some with no home; not a nickel to loan,
c C/D
Could it be really me, pre-tending they're not alone?
Bridge 2:
Am7 Dsus4
A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart,
Cadd9 Dsus4
And a washed out dream.
Am7 Dsus4
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya' see,
Cadd9 C/D
'Cos they got no place to be; that's why I'm starting with me.
Chorus 2:
G GaddA/B Cadd9 C/D
I'm starting with the man in the mirror;
G GaddA/B Cadd9 C/D
I'm asking him to change his ways.
G GaddA/B c C#dim
And no message, could have been any clearer;
D7+9
If you wanna make the world a better place,
G
Take a look at yourself and then make a change.
Chorus 3:
G GaddA/B Cadd9 C/D
I'm starting with the man in the mirror;
G GaddA/B Cadd9 C/D
I'm asking him to change his ways.
G GaddA/B c C#dim
And no message, could have been any clearer;
D7+9
If you wanna make the world a better place,
Take a look at yourself and then make that...

I'm asking him to change his ways.
G# G#addA#/c C# Ddim
And no message, could have been any clearer;
D#7+9
If you wanna make the world a better place,
Take a look at yourself and then make that change.
You gotta get it right, while you got the time,
(n.c) (G#)
'Cos when you close your heart, you can't close your mind.
Chorus 5:
G#addA#/c C#add9 C#/D#
I'm starting with the man in the mirror;
G# G#addA#/c C#add9 C#/D#
I'm asking him to change his ways.
G# G#addA#/c C# Ddim
And no message, could have been any clearer;
