GEORGE JONES


INTRO: D A  D


VERSE 1:

(D) ALMOST EVERY SUNDAY WE'D GATHER AROUND THE HOME PLACE

THATS (G) BADLY IN NEED OF MY MOMMAS LOVING (A) HAND

US (D) KIDS OFFER EVERYTHING FROM EASY CHAIRS TO MONEY

BUT HIS (G) PRIDE WANT LET US (A) LEND A HELPING (D) HAND


CHORUS:

(D) DADDY'S LIVING OFF THE (G) MEMORIES OF (A) MAMA

(D) THATS WHAT KEEPS HIM GOIN (A) EVERYDAY

(D) THE ONLY TRIPS HE EVER TAKES ARE (G) HIGH UPON THAT (D) MOUNTAIN

WHERE MAMA LIES A (A) SLEEPING IN THE (D) SHADE


VERSE 2:

(D) FROM THE PORCH I SEE A MEMORY

HE DIDNT HAVE THE HEART TO SALE

AND (G) THRU THE DUST AND ALL THE RUST

I CAN SEE SOME FADED (A) GREEN

(D) ITS THAT '47 PICK UP OH MY MAMA LOVED SO WELL

WHEN AS WE (G) LOADED UP AND (A) FOLLOWED OUR (D) DREAMS


CHORUS

(D) DADDY'S LIVING OFF THE (G) MEMORIES OF (A) MAMA
