D 
when her  (G major) mama died that year  (D major) 
Livin' with Grandma

she's  (G major) growin' up so fast
A 
And  (A major) though she makes us laugh,

 (Asus4) Do  (D major) you remember
your mother's smile

How she  (G major) filled your home with love

Too  (A major) young to understand

why  (G major) she's gone away
D 
 (D major) To keep her memory alive

Either  (G major) way is tough

But you have  (A major) so much to tell her
G 
When you  (G major) see her on that day

I know  (A major) Mama would be  (D major) proud  (G major)

I know the  (D major) years will fly like the wind

through gradu (G major) ations and
wedding gowns.
A 
And  (A major) there will be those moments
G 
D 
when it's  (G major) hard to face the day.  (D major) 
And in times like that when
the pain is fresh
G 
and how we  (G major) wish it was a rhyme,
A 
we will fall  (A major) down on our knees
Em 
and cry like only  (E minor) broken hearts
A 
can break (A major) .
Em 
Sometimes  (E minor) truth is stranger than fiction

Though death  (E minor) may separate us
