Verse:
Am                  Amaj7
Momma gets by while papa gets high
Am                                   Amaj7
  She makes enough to raise a family
      Am                 Amaj7
She's working all day to bring in the pay
      Dmaj7                  E
She's taking good care of me
Dmaj7                    E
Giving me every opportunity
Am                   Amaj7
And if it rains, she never complains
      Am                                  Amaj7
She's tough enough to make it through the storm, mm-hm
Am                 Amaj7
Papa gets back and heads for the sack
   Dmaj7                               E
As soon as he steps inside the kitchen door
    Dmaj7                                 E
But she doesn't mind, she's seen it all before

Pre-Chorus:
Dmaj7                                  E
She doesn't care, she's got her own philosophy of life
Dmaj7                            E
It wasn't too long ago that she agreed to bе his wife
    Dmaj7                             E
And even though hе's complicated, she takes it in her stride
Dmaj7                                 E
What are his silly faults compared to what she feels inside?
 
 
Chorus:
    A
She loves him
    Amaj7                            A
She loves him with all her heart and soul
                  D    E
All her heart and soul
  E         A
Because she loves him
    Amaj7                            A7
She loves him with all her heart and soul
                  D    E
All her heart and soul
 
 
[Instrumental]

Pre-Chorus:
      Dmaj7                                  E
Well, she doesn't care, she's got her own philosophy of life
Dmaj7                            E
It wasn't too long ago that she agreed to bе his wife
    Dmaj7                             E
And even though hе's complicated, she takes it in her stride
Dmaj7                                 E
What are his silly faults compared to what she feels inside?
 
 
Chorus:
    A
She loves him
    Amaj7                            G
She loves him with all her heart and soul
                  D
All her heart and soul
  E         A
Because she loves him
        Amaj7                            G
And she loves him with all her heart and soul
                       D    E
With all her heart and soul
