Mamas Arms chords by Ronan Keating

Chords with lyrics

Going back to a tender age,
A augmentedA
So full of confusion and rage,
G+G
Daddy says, Boys, your Mama's gone.
D MajorD
There's a hand on your shoulder as you're throwing dirt,
A augmentedA
Someone says, Time heals the hurt.
G+G
Little man, you got to keep on keepin' on,
  D MajorD
But all you want is Mama's arms.

D MajorD
You ride back home in a limosine,
A augmentedA
The saddest car that you've ever seen,
G+G
Your brother can not look you in the eye.
D MajorD
Lightning strikes, thunder roars,
A augmentedA
An early winter in that heart of yours,
G+G
But you swear you won't let them see you cry
    D MajorD
'Cause all you want is Mama's arms.

D MajorD
The neighbors come and bring you pies,
A augmentedA
Endless words and futile sighs,
G+G
And you run up to your room and lock the door.
D MajorD
And there you are in your Sunday best,
A augmentedA
The way your Mama would have had you dressed
G+G
And you realize it doesn't matter anymore
    G+G
'Cause all you want is Mama's arms.

D MajorD
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes.
A augmentedA
The seasons change the young boy grows
G+G
To understand it's all part of some plan.
D MajorD
You used to wonder what it's all about.
A augmentedA
Now those are questions you can do without.
G+G
You laugh them off and do the best you can
G+G
All you want is Mama's arms
G+G
