Verse:
           C           Em          F            C
There's an old rocking chair in my front room I keep
   C               Em             D           G
It sits there with pride and with memories is steeped
   C             Em        F           C
In Soft light of Evening I picture you there
C         Em           Dm  G       C
Mother of mine in your old rocking chair.

Verse:
C          Em             F          C
Visions of childhood come soft as to yield
C             Em          D         G
Pains of your parting and sadness I feel
    C        Em          F            C
And gently a smile I can raise and do share
     C           Em            Dm  G       C
With you, mother dear, in your old rocking chair

Refrain:
F                        C            Am
Blessed was the child as dark gathers so
   D                          Dm7        G
To rest there a while in your arms long ago

Verse:
C       Em            F         C
Faraway memories will always be mine
C          Em        D              G
Whisper to me in the soft breeze of time
   C           Em          F           C
Oh Mother, the child in me longs to be there
 C             Em           Dm  G       C
Asleep in your arms in your old rocking chair.

Refrain:
F                        C             Am
Blessed was the child as dark gathered so
   D                          Dm7        G
To rest there a while in your arms long ago

Verse:
           C           Em          F            G
There's an old rocking chair in my front room I keep
   C               Em       D          G
It sits there with pride, a comfort to me
   C             Em        F           G
In Soft light of Evening I picture you there
C         Em           Dm  G       C
Mother of mine in your old rocking chair

Am        Em           Dm  G       C
Mother of mine in your old rocking chair.
