Introduction:
C G
Mama sometimes I feel inside
Am F
There's nothing I can say
C G
Nothing I can do
F D
Could ever match the love you gave
C G
You taught me how to live
Am F
Told me walk before you run
C G
And you were always there to pick me up
F C
Everytime I'd have a fall
G
And mama I know there's been times
F C
When I didn't always understrand
G
By and by we do some growing up
F C
And it makes just a little more sense
F C
But sometimes it's hard to find the words
Am F
But I'll do the best that I can
C G
Thank you for the love mama
F C
It's what made this boy a man

C G
I know the road's been long
Am F
And I know you've seen some rain
C G
Making the best of what we had
F D
I never heard you complain
C G
When I look in the mirror today
Am F
Wondering could I be as strong
C G
Could I give as much to someone else
F C
As you gave to your son
G
And mama I know there's been times
F C
When we didn't see eye to eye
G
By and by we do some growing up
F C
And we understand the reasons why
F C
But sometimes it's hard to find the words
Am F
But I'll do the best I can

Thank you for the love mama
