Verse 1
(C major) I saw (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major) the
look in your eye
when you showed (F major) Tammy's
house on TV (C major)
And you can't believe
Loretta has her own (G major) town
And the (C major) way you get lost
when you play (F major) and sing
Well, it's (C major) easy to see (F major)
Your dreams (C major) had to be bygones
Cause (G major) life pinned you down (C major)
The babies cry, the (F major) dead beat dead
So (G major) wonderin' that you even (A minor)
had the time (F major) to play
The songs that took (G major) you away
West Vir (C major) ginia mountains, (F major) but hard times
Fam (G major) ily bonds and country (A minor) rhymes
Well, they got (F major) you through 1962 (G major)
Oh, mama, (F major) you wanted to be (G major) a singer,
too (C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major)
You've done a heft of a job
of tak (F major) ing whatever's come your way (C major)
And today you smile
through your weathered (G major) face
But from (C major) time to time when I play (F major) a song
No (C major) matter what you say (F major)
I know (C major) you see yourself (G major) up on that stage (C major)
Five babies from a (F major) deadbeat dad
It's a (G major) wonder that you even (A minor)
had the time (F major) to play
The songs that took (G major) you away
West Vir (C major) ginia mountains, (F major) ballpark times
Fam (G major) ily bonds and country (A minor) rhymes
Well, they got (F major) you through 1962 (G major)
Oh, mama, (F major) you wanted
to be (G major) a singer, too (C major)
Well, God grabbed me the
strength of (F major) seeing you
I (G major) hope I make your dream (A minor) s come true
Cause, (F major) mama,
you wanted to be (G major) a singer, too (C major)
Oh, (A minor) mama (F major) you wanted to (G major) be
Outro 1
a singer too
(C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major)
