From Album Single Mothers Absent Fathers
Finger picked with lots of little hammer ons
[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
C
It's raining in the mountains
Am
It's heading this way
C
It’s supposed to rain tomorrow
Am
Or the next day
F G
Sure I get lonely
C walk Am
But a whole lot has changed
F G
Yours is the first voice I've heard in days
[Verse 2]
C
Oh but mama if you don't mind
Am
Can we talk about something else
C
Mama please don't come over
Am
This ain’t nothing you can help
F G C walk Am
You'll be the first to know when I start to come around
F G C
I’m not drowning I'm just seeing how long I can stay down
[Chorus]
Am
And mama she's gone
F C
And just a picture in a drawer
F C G
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
C
Mama she's gone
[Verse 3]
C
Well you know there's nothing tying me
Am
to this town now that she's gone
C
Don't know why I ever come back
Am
Guess I just tagged along
F G C walk Am
Can't believe that once I called this place my home
F G C
Cause I'm walking the streets and all I see is ghosts
[Chorus]
Am
Mama she's gone
F C
And just a picture in a drawer
F C G
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
C
Mama she's gone
[Instrumental]
C Am C Am F G C Am F (this is not right, but close-ish)
[Bridge]
F C
Lonely, lonely and wondering where I am
F G
And I know the love I see was over long before it began
[Verse 4]
C
And now the rain's getting closer
Am
Midnight's coming on
C
The wind seems to whisper
Am
You fool you know she's gone
F G C walk Am
I still leave the gate unlatched just in case she staggers home
F G C
Mama said she was no good And now she's gone
