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