Mother Hold Me Tight chords by Kitty Wells, Roy Acuff
Intro 1
C
D
G
Verse 1
G
With her little rag doll
C
G
clutched in her arms
D
She was crossing the street
G
realizing no harm
And I was the driver,
C
G
It's sad but it's true
D
Who killed that little girl,
G
It could happen to you
With a scream and a crash in
C
G
the street there she lay
D
G
That scene will haunt me 'til my dying day
C
G
I can hear it each day and all thru the night
D
That little girl pleading
G
"Mother Hold Me Tight"
No charges were placed
against me
C
G
Unavoidable the report read
D
I did my best to stop
But the little girl she's dead
G
God knows I'd gladly take
her place if I only could
But that's just wishful thinking
C
G
and really does no good
D
No one will ever know,
My prayer I can't repeat
G
As I knelt beside that little girl
As she died there in the street
C
My life has been so darkened,
G
At night I cannot sleep
D
For I dream about the little girl
G
I killed there in the street
With a scream and a crash in
C
G
the street there she lay
D
G
That scene will haunt me 'til my dying day
C
G
I can hear it each day and all thru the night
D
That little girl pleading
"Mother Hold Me Tight"
G
Mother Hold Me Tight
