D                                      A7                  D
Just as far as I can remember she'll remain the rose of my heart

                                   A7                       D
Mama took sick along in December February brought us broken hearts

                 F#m            Bm       D           A7                        D
The reason we've not called the family reunion is we knew that you wouldn't be there

                F#m        Bm       D       A7                      D   D7
But now that we thought it all over mama we know that the spirit is here
[Chorus]
G                                         D7                G
No no I can't forget the hours you're the only one mama and sweeter than the flowers

                                   D7                     G
No no there's no need to bother to speak of you now would only hurt farther

D                                    A7                       D
Oh no mama I'll never forget you and someday I'll meet you up there

G                                         D7                G
No no I can't forget the hours you're the only one mama and sweeter than the flowers

                                   D7                     G
No no there's no need to bother to speak of you now would only hurt farther

D     F#m       Bm       D              A                        D
Oh no mama I'll never forget you 'cause someday I'll meet you up there
