[Bm][G][A][D][A]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Mom was cooking bread,
[F]she wore a dirty raggety scarf
[C]around her head.
Always had [Em]her stockings low,
rolled to her feet, she just [G]didn't know.
She [Am]wore a sloppy dress,
No mat[F]ter how she tried,
she always [C]looked a mess.
Out of the pot [Em]she ate,
never used a fork or a [G]dinner plate.
[Bm]I was always so [A]ashamed for my
uptown friends to see her,
[Bm]Afraid one day when I [A]was grown
that I would be [Bm]her.
[F#]

[Verse 2]
In a [Bm]col lege town, [G]away from home,
a new [D]identity I found.
Said I [F#m]was born elite,
with maids and servants [A]at my feet.
I must have [Bm]been insane,
I [G]lied and said my mom died on
a weekend [D]trip to Spain.
She nev[F#m]er got out of the house,
never even [A]boarded a train.
I [Bm]mar ried a guy, was [A]livin' high,
I didn't want him to know her,
[D]She had[Bm] a grandson, two year[A]s old,
I never even showed her.
[D]I'm

[Verse 3]
Livin' In [F#m]Shame, Momma,

I [D]miss you.

[Verse 4]
Came [F]the telegram,
mom passed away while
making [C]homemade jam.
[Em]Before she died,
she cried to see me [G]by her side.
She always [Am]did her best,
Ah! [F]cookin', cleanin',
always in [C]the same old dress.
[Em]Workin' hard down on her knees,
always [G]try'n [Bm]to please.[A]
Momma! Momma! Do you hear [Bm]me,
