Dm Mama, she has taught me well,
CTold me when I was Amiyoung,
Son, your life's an open book
Don't close it before it's done
The brighest flame burns quickest,
that's what I heard her say,
A son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way
®: Dm Let Cmy Amiheart Ggo
Dm Let Cyour Amison Ggrow
Mama Dm let Cyour Amiheart Ggo
Or Dm let Cthis Bheart Gbe Amistill
Rebel mind your last name
Wild blood in my veins
they bring strings around my neck
The mark that still remains
Left home at and early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
but what is said is done
®: Dm Let Cmy Amiheart Ggo
Dm Let Cyour Amison Ggrow
Mama Dm let Cyour Amiheart Ggo
Or Dm let Cthis Bheart Gbe Amistill
Dm Never I Gasked you
But Cnever I Fgave
But you gave me your emptiness
That I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
So Dm let Cthis Bheart Gbe Amistill
Mama now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
But a mother's love for her son
spoken help me be..
I took your love for granted
And all the things you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But a cold stone's all I see
®:
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama let your heart go
Or let his heart be still
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama let your heart go
Or let his heart be still
