Am

This song right here is

for my mom.
Am
Em
Am
Em

It's the hardest song I ever wrote in my life. I must have cried a million tears. I wasn't going to write it at first,
Am
Em
G
Bm
Em
Am
Em
Am
Em
Bm
Em
Am
Em

but I figured if I could do a song recognizing everything else, it's only right to write about the woman who gave me life.
Bm

So this is dedicated to my momma,
Em
Bm
Em

an d all the other mommas that's not here today.

Straight from the heart,
G
Em

straight from the
Am

I got a call in the waiting room, from the nurse,
Em
G
Bm
Em

telling me to come upstairs, cause my momma's worse.
Am
Em

I was at my baby's bedside in a flash,
Bm
Em

but the look on their faces told me she passed.
Am
Em

And everything went blank, I couldn't think,
G
Bm
Em

I couldn't believe it, even though she wasn't breathing.
Am
Em

And the life support

machine was turned off
G

And the tubes removed from
Bm
Em

my nose and mouth
Am
Em

I started trippin' and my

stepfather walks in and states,

Let her go, son, she's in a better place
Am
Em
Am
Em

She ain't sufferin' no more,

let her go, I won't
Bm
Em

I should feel good for her, but I don't
Am

And she didn't deserve

to go like that, gee
Em

I wonder why the good
Bm
G
Em

Lord didn't take me
Am

But instead,
Em

I was pickin' up the telephone
Bm

Callin' up my sisters and brothers,
Am

tellin' them I'm gone
Em

Up drove a hearse,
Bm
Em

a hearse can a lie
Am
Em
Am
Em

A crowd of people gathered round,

Em

dressed in black
Am
Em

Up drove a hearse,

It had my precious mother
Bm
G
Bm

Ever since you left here,
Am
Em

things done changed

Christmas,

New

Year's, and

Thanksgiving ain't the same
Am
Em

Without your button smile,

and since you're here
G

And everybody missed you
Bm

at the family reunion
Em
Am

Especially me,
Em
Am
Em
Am

I tried to play strong
Em
G

Looked around, didn't see you,
Bm
Em

couldn't stay long
Am
Em

Cause there's tears in my

eyes from your death
G

And if I'm gonna cry,
Em

I'm gonna cry by myself
Am
Em

It hurts me to drive to your gravesite

And visit on your birthday

But it's only right,
Am
Em

I can't believe that your name is on a stone
Bm

Buried in the ground, when

Mother's
Em
Am

Day rolled around

Now that you're gone,
Em
Am
Em

I realize how much pain and misery
Bm
Em

You went through because of me
Am
Em

Going to jail, raising hell, getting kicked
Bm

Out of school for fights and keep
Em

ing you up late at night
Am
Em

When you had to go to
Am

work the next morning
Em
G

So I could have food to eat
Bm
Em

and shoes on my feet
Am
Em

And a place to stay,

but being young and dumb

I couldn't understand it,
Bm
Em
Bm
Em

so I took you for granted
Am
Em
Am

I had a witness, you missed it, boo
Em
Bm
Em

My little baby girl blew a kiss at you
Am

She never got to see her granny
Em

But I told her about your spirit
Bm
C
Em

And if she call your name, you can hear it
Am
Em
Bm

I drove a hearse, a hearse caroline
Em
Am

A lot of people gathered round,
Bm
Em

dressed in black
Am

Drove the hearse, this
Bm

Cadillac
Em
Am
Em

It had my precious mother,
G
Bm
Em

in my lap
Am
Em

Be good to your mama

while you still got her
Bm

Hug her and kiss her cause when she
Em

gone you're gonna miss her
Am
Em

I wish I could've written verse

Cause words can't express the pain
Bm
Em

that I felt when I saw the hearse
Am
Em
Am
Em

Drive off with my mama inside,
G
Bm

taking her for a last ride
Em
Am

I nearly died,
Em

cause that's how I felt boss
Bm

Putting a gun to my head and blowing
G
Em

the motherfucker off
Am

But she would've wanted
Em

me to be strong

Throw ten up,
Am
Em

not pin up and lift my chin up
Am
Em

She would've told me get your money,

keep making moves
G
Bm

And take care of your nieces
Em

and your nephews
Am
Em

Mama you're gone,
Am

it's hard being without you
Em
Bm

It ain't a day that goes by
Em

I don't think about you
Am
Em

Everybody's saying count your
Am
Em

blessings and we'll
Am

But they don't know how I feel
Em
Am
Em
Am
Em

I can't believe this
Bm

I remember the day the
Em

Lord took you away

It was yesterday
Bm
Em

The whole world collapsed
Am
Em

It was like

All the arguments and the resentment
G
Bm

that I felt for you
Bm
Em

When you treated me

Em

It has not crushed us no

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
