Chords with lyrics
C majorC FF C majorC
I started drinking and acting crazy
FF C majorC
Way back in sixty-five
FF C majorC
Mama would pray and say he's my baby
G7G7
Lord please keep him alive
C majorC FF C majorC
Sister came home with two little children
FF C majorC
Her man had left her alone
FF C majorC
Mama knew too well the hurt she was feeling
FF C majorC
Cause Daddy had been gone so long
FF
We all did our part
C majorC
To add to her pain
FF
We all broke her heart
G7G7
But she never complained
C majorC FF C majorC
She loved a lot in her time
FF C majorC
She watched love grow and die on the vine
She stood in the shadows
FF C majorC
So others could shine
G7G7 C majorC
She loved a lot in her time
FF C majorC
Mama's prayers were answered a long time ago
FF C majorC
I ain't touched a drink in 1 years
FF C majorC
Sister remarried to a good ol' boy
G7G7 C majorC
They don't live far from here
FF
Mama's work is done
C majorC
Now she's gone on home
FF
The words in our hearts
G7G7
Are engraved on her stone
Repeat #4
