Mama
Recorded by Porter Wagoner
Written by Charlie Aldridge

C Am D7 G7 C
(Mama mama it's gettin' close to the end
Am D7 G7 C
Mama mama can I come home again)

Am D7
Where did the years go mama
G7 C
Why it seemed like only yesterday that we were man and wife
Am
That was in the springtime of our years
D7 G7
When everything pointed to the good life

C Am
It started when we lost the boy mama
D7 G7
I turned to the bottle to ease the pain
C
Oh I loved you so much mama
Am D7 G7
When I woke up it was too late to change

C Am
Oh I went by the school lots of times mama
D7 C
To see how our two girls was gettin' along
Am
You sure done a fine job raisin’ 'em mama
D7 G7 C
Too bad I had to let you do it all alone

Am D7
Somehow you never married again mama
G7 C
Though I know you could've wed any man you ever knew
Am D7
I tried it again no it didn't last
G7 C
I just couldn't find another girl like you

Am D7
I parked up on top of the hill above your house lots of nights mama
G7
Thinkin' of what could've been
C Am
It seemed somehow it helped bein' close to you
D7 G7
While I was wishin' wishin' I could come in

C
I'm gettin' cold mama
Am D7 G7
The candle I've burned on both ends is flickering low
C Am D7
There's a stranger at my shoulder mama he's come for me
G7 C
Goodbye mama I love you mama
