Chorus
[Am]
The man is gone
[E]
And mama says
[C] [F]
She can't live without him
[Am]
The man is gone
[E]
And mama says
[C] [F]
There is no life without him
Verse
[Am] [E]
She has no one to stop her tears
[D] [B7]
A man who heals and calms down her fears
[Am] [E]
She needs to wake up in her man's arms
[D] [B7]
And to be loved just like a child
[C] [B7]
Ooh ooh
[Dm] [Am]
Ooh ooh
Chorus
[Am]
The man is gone

There is no life without him
Bridge
[Am] [E]
How can I tell her the way I feel?
[D] [B7]
I'm afraid she'd be hurt and sink
[Am] [E]
It pisses me off, it drives me mad
[D] [B7]
That she lets herself feel so bad
[C] [B7]
Ooh ooh
[Dm] [Am]
Ooh ooh
[Am] [E] [C] [F] ([Em])
Eleggua ko, Eleggua ko aña, Eleggua ko, Eleggua ko aña

Eleggua ko, Eleggua ko aña, Alaroye masankio, Eleggua ko aña
Chorus

The man is gone

And mama says
[C] [F] [C]
There is no life without him
