A SONG TO MAMA DEAR
INTRO: A F A F A F A
CHORUS:
A D A D
Dear Mama, now that we're older
A D A D
We can see the load on your tired, old shoulders
A D A D
Mama, you're a trooper Mama, you're a soldier
A E A
Mama, you mean a lot to me
A D A
She always got me out of bed Early Sunday morn
E
And took me off to church
D A
Where I could learn about the Lord
A D A
Mama tried to tell me how my life was going to be
E D A
But I was young and wild and it was hard for me to see
CHORUS:
A D A D
Dear Mama, now that we're older
A D A D
We can see the load on your tired, old shoulders
A D A D
Mama, you're a trooper Mama, you're a soldier
A E A
Mama, you mean a lot to me
BREAK: JOHNNY CASH (SPOKEN):
A D A
Mama, you always taught me right from wrong when I was growing up
D A
And it's a pity that most people like me have to try everything for
D
themselves.
A D A F
I realize now you always knew just what you were talking about
A D
And mama for all that hard work you did
A E A
And for the sacrifices you made for us. I just want to say thanks a lot.
CHORUS:
A D A D
Dear Mama, now that we're older
A D A D
We can see the load on your tired, old shoulders
A D A D
Mama, you're a trooper Mama, you're a soldier
A E A
Mama, you mean a lot to me
