Intro 1
(D major) (G major)
Verse 1
(G major) I've just been to heaven
with someone (C major) so true
(G major) I dreamed (D major) about mama last night (G major)
She read me the bible like she (C major) used to do
(G major) I dreamed (D major) about Mama last night (G major)
She never closed her eyes in sleep
till we were all in bed (C major)
And on party night (G major) s till we came home
she often (D major) sat and read
We little thought about it then
(G major) for we were young and gay
Just (C major) how much (G major) Mama worried
when we children were awake
We only (C major) knew she never slept
and (G major) when we were out at night
(D major) That she waited just to know
that we'd all come home all (G major) right
Why sometimes when we'd (C major) stay away
till one or two or three
It seemed to (G major) us that mama heard
the turning of the key
For (A major) al ways when we'd step inside
she'd call and we'd reply
(D major) But we were all too young back then
to under (G major) stand the reason why
Until the last (C major) one had returned,
she'd al (G major) ways keep a light
But (D major) Mama couldn't sleep
until she kissed us all goodnight (G major)
She had to know that (D major) we were safe
before (G major) she went to rest
But she seemed to fear
(C major) the world might harm
the one (G major) she loved the best
And (D major) once she said,
when you are grown to
women and to men, (G major)
perhaps I'll sleep the
whole night through,
I may be different then.
And so it seemed that (C major) night and day
we (G major) knew a mother's care,
that al (D major) ways when we got back home
we'd find her waiting there. (G major)
Then came the night
that we were called (C major) together
round her bed,
The children are all with you (G major) now,
the time the doctor said
And in her (A major) eyes there gleamed again
that old time tender light
(D major) That told that she'd been waiting
just to know we were all (G major) right
She smiled, (E minor) that old famil (C major) iar smile,
and prayed to God (G major) to keep
Her chil (D major) dren safe from harm
throughout the years
And then she (G major) went to sleep
My dream is a treasure
that I'll (C major) always keep. (G major)
I dreamed (D major) about Mama last night. (G major)
