[Intro]
G Am G Am7
G D C G
[Verse 1]
G Am G Am
Me and Bobby Wills were camping out in my backyard;
G C G
Ten years old, just us, the moon, and stars.
G Am G Am
Then the back porch light came on, much to our surprise;
G C G
Mama came out for the umpteenth time.
Cm7 D G D Em7
She said that she was worried that it might be too cold,
C D G
And were we really OK on our own?
Cm7 D G Bm Em
I told her we were big boys, and we were doing fine,
Am7 A7 D
But she just stood there for the longest time,
[Chorus]
C
And I thought she'd never leave!
G
Be there for eternity!
Am7 Em C
Always looking out for me;
D C
I thought she'd never leave!
[Verse 2]
G Am G Am
First semester, freshman year, Mama helped me move
G C G
All my stuff into my new dorm room.
G Am G Am
She stacked my socks, stacked my shirts, stacked my underwear;
G D7 G
Then she sat down in my only chair.
Cm7 D G D Em7
Well, she went on and on for hours until she made it through
C D G
All the things I should and shouldn't do.
Cm7 D G Bm Em7
My roommate, he just stood there, smiled and rolled his eyes;
A7 D
Then she stood up and finally said, "Goodbye."
[Chorus]
C
And I thought she'd never leave!
G
Be there for eternity!
Am7 Em C
Always looking out for me;
D C
I thought she'd never leave!
[Refrain]
Em G C Em7
And now I'm standing at her bedside with all the family
C D G
Watching as she slowly slips away.
C D G Em
And though they say it's no use, I'd do anything
Am D
If the Lord up above would let her stay!
[Chorus]
C
And I thought she'd never leave!
G
Be there for eternity!
Am7 Em C
Always looking out for me;
D C
I thought she'd never leave!
G
Be here for eternity!
Am Em C
Always looking out for me;
D C
I thought she'd never leave!
