[Intro 1]
[D][A][D][G][A][D]
[A][D][C][G]
[D][A][D][C][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]Mama,
how do I [A]write the words to you
You were the [C]only one who
[G]loved me true

[Verse 2]
But there's a [D]woman that we
[A]don't even know
She gave me [C]life,
then you [G]gave me a home

[Verse 3]
I love you, [Bm]Mama
But I want to [F#m]tell her too
Is that her [Em]little boy [G]still
[A]loves you
[D][A][D][C][G]

[Verse 4]
I close [D]my eyes,
does she [A]look like me
Does she [C]need my help,
is she [G]cold on the street

[Verse 5]
Am I for[D]gotten like a [A]bad childhood dream
A [C]be
-movie actor on the [G]black
and white screen

[Verse 6]
I love you, [Bm]Mama
But I want to [F#m]tell her too
Is that her [Em]little boy [G]still [A]loves [D]you
Is that her [Em]little boy [G]still [A]loves you
[D]

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Could I have seen her,
[F#m]I'll neve[D]r know
Maybe she's [Em]always been
there [D]watching me grow
I wanted to [Em]tell her how
[D]grateful I am
For giving me [G]life, I've done the [Gm]best that
[D]I[G][D][A][D]
[C]can[G][D][F#m][D]

[Verse 8]
[G]I love you, Mam[D]a[Bm]
But I want to [F#m]tell her too

[Verse 9]
Is that her [Em]little boy [G]still [A]loves [D]you
Her [Em]little boy [G]still [A]loves you
[D][Em][G][D]
