D
Well, all of the pain you've felt, I hope you never have to feel it again
Bm
And the night that you picked me up from jail and I swore I'd never do it again
           G                                       A
I'm sorry, mama, no woman should have to carry anyone
A
Let alone her own son, yeah
D

And all the times that the money ran out and we needed to be fed
Bm
And all the nights that the winters got cold and you worked until your fingers bled
           G                                                   A
I'm sorry, mama, no woman should have to do the things you've done
A
She did 'em better than any man, yeah

G
'Cause mama, I miss you and I wish that I could change
D
Yeah, I'd do anything I can for the lady who gave me my name
         Bm              A         G
And just know that it's not your fault
        Bm           A           G     A
Without you, I'd be nothin' at all


♫ Verse 2:
D
And all the times that you'd take me to papa's and grandma's and I'd stay all day
Bm
And all the time that I spent on the farm where all the other grandkids play
           G
I know you miss 'em 'cause I miss 'em too every day
           D     A
I'm sorry, mama
D
And all the times that I got kicked out and I didn't have a place to stay
Bm
And all the nights that you'd lie in your bed, wide awake and you would pray
           G
I know I'm crazy and I'm so caught up in my ways
           D     A
I'm sorry, mama

Without you, I'd be nothin' at all
G
'Cause mama, I miss you and I know that I can change
