Chords with lyrics

Intro:

BB   B minorBm   BB  B minorBm


Verse 1:
BB             B minorBm
 When I couldn't leave the house, every day felt like
BB     B minorBm         G+G
 Boeing 747s falling out the sky

I said, "I'm alright", thought I hid it well
BB          B minorBm        BB B minorBm
 But you knew I was going through hell

Verse 2:
BB            B minorBm
 Growing up you'd never leave me too long alone
BB           B minorBm          G+G
 Be the one to hold my hand when I cross the road
                         BB
Now I'm crossing off mistakes that I've gone and made
          B minorBm
A augmentedA mother knows the daughter she raised

Pre-Chorus:
G+G
Singing on the school runs with the rooftop down
B minorBm                    B7B7
You'd say, "Darling, Go ahead and make me proud", but

Chorus:
F minorFm        FF
 Every guy that I ever dated
BB   F/CF/C      B minorBm
 Every bad friend you said you hated
F minorFm        FF             B7B7
 I ignored your advice, thought that I knew best
  F/CF/C        BB      F minorFm
But you were like the voice in my head
      FF
Yeah, right there
         BB      F/CF/C  B minorBm
Like a beautiful thorn stuck in my side
     FF     G+G   FF
Guess all I'm tryna say is.
           B minorBm
Mamma, you were right

Verse 3:
BB        B minorBm
 Even when I was gone, I wasn't far away
BB            B minorBm            G+G
 Nothing that you coulda done would have made me stay
                   BB
I was only tryna grow, follow my own heart
         B minorBm
I guess I wasn't really that smart

Pre-Chorus:
G+G
Singing on the school runs with the rooftop down
B minorBm                    B7B7
You'd say, "Darling, Go ahead and make me proud", but

Chorus:
F minorFm        FF
 Every guy that I ever dated
BB   F/CF/C      B minorBm
 Every bad friend you said you hated
F minorFm        FF             B7B7
 I ignored your advice, thought that I knew best
  F/CF/C        BB      F minorFm
But you were like the voice in my head
      FF
Yeah, right there
         BB      F/CF/C  B minorBm
Like a beautiful thorn stuck in my side
     FF     G+G   FF
Guess all I'm tryna say is.
           B minorBm
Mamma, you were right

Mamma, you were right
