F   Am   Bb   Bb Am Gm (3x)
                    cross this road...

F                 Am
When I was just a little boy
Bb                          Bb Am Gm
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
F             C
Momma hold my hand
Bb                  Bb    Am   Gm        F
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

F                Am
And when I was a young man
Bb              Bb Am Gm
I would go astray
Didn't want nobody to hold my hand
Wanted to make my own way
Dm                 Am
And my momma would come out to help me
Dm                 Am
But I pushed her away
Dm                     Am
Cause I just wanted to be on my own
Bb                Bb    C
And here's what I say

CHORUS 2
F              C
Momma leave my hand
Bb                   Bb    Am   Gm        F
I've been waiting to cross this road by myself
Am         Bb          Bb Am Gm
Cross this road by myself

F                   Am
Well now that I'm a grown man
    Bb           Bb Am Gm
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
F             C
Momma hold my hand
Bb                  Bb    Am   Gm        F
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

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

CHORUS 4
F             C
Momma hold my hand
Bb                    Bb    Am   Gm          F
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
