FF  A minorAm  Bb majorBb  Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm (3x)
          cross this road...

FF         A minorAm
When I was just a little boy
Bb majorBb             Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
Well I would go out to play
And I would wander so far from home
That I would lose my way
And I'd call on my momma to help me
and she'd come right away
To help me get back home where I wanna be
And here's what I say

CHORUS 1
FF       C majorC
Momma hold my hand
Bb majorBb         Bb majorBb  A minorAm  G minorGm    FF
I don't think I can cross this road by myself
Momma hold my hand
I don't think I can cross this road by myself

FF        A minorAm
And when I was a young man
Bb majorBb       Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
I would go astray
Didn't want nobody to hold my hand
Wanted to make my own way
DmDm         A minorAm
And my momma would come out to help me
DmDm         A minorAm
But I pushed her away
DmDm           A minorAm
Cause I just wanted to be on my own
Bb majorBb        Bb majorBb  C majorC
And here's what I say

CHORUS 2
FF       C majorC
Momma leave my hand
Bb majorBb          Bb majorBb  A minorAm  G minorGm    FF
I've been waiting to cross this road by myself
A minorAm     Bb majorBb     Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
Cross this road by myself

FF          A minorAm
Well now that I'm a grown man
  Bb majorBb      Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
And I've moved away
I got a house a 9to5
And my wife got a kid on the way
Momma told me that life's gonna gear of
Take it day by day
But every once in a while I get scared
And I wish I could say

CHORUS 3
FF       C majorC
Momma hold my hand
Bb majorBb         Bb majorBb  A minorAm  G minorGm    FF
I don't think I can cross this road by myself
Momma hold my hand
I don't think I can cross this road by myself

FF        A minorAm           Bb majorBb
Now my momma is near the end of her years
         Bb majorBb A minorAm G minorGm
And her hair is grey
Sometimes I call her
To ask her if she would like to spend the day
DmDm        A minorAm
Momma used to be strong but she aint now
DmDm           A minorAm
And she can't make her way
DmDm              A minorAm
That's why I'm always around when she needs help
Bb majorBb         Bb majorBb  C majorC
And here's what I say

CHORUS 4
FF       C majorC
Momma hold my hand
Bb majorBb          Bb majorBb  A minorAm  G minorGm     FF
I don't think you can cross this road by yourself
Momma hold my hand
I don't think you can cross this road by yourself
