 C/G                                    E7
Perhaps it is the color of the sun cut flat

     Am                           D7/F#
And covering the crossroads I'm standing at

   C                  E          Am            Fmaj7
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that

    C                 G       C
But mama, you've been on my mind
[Verse 2]
   C/G                                                  E7
I mean no trouble, please don't put me down, don't get upset

                 Am         D7/F#
I am not pleading, or saying I can't forget you

   C                  E            Am            Fmaj7
I do not pace the floor, bowed down and bent, but yet

       C              G       C
Well, mama you've been on my mind
[Verse 3]
    C/G
Even though my eyes are hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow

       E7                       Am             D7/F#
Where you've been don't bother me, or bring me down in sorrow

     C           E                  Am           Fmaj7
I don't even mind who you'll be waking with tomorrow

     C               G      C
But mama, you're just on my mind
[Verse 4]
    C/G
I am not askin' you to say words like yes or no

               E7     Am                     D7/F#
Please understand me, I have no place, I'm calling you

         C                 E                Am               Fmaj7
I'm just whispering to myself so I can pretend that I don't know

   C              G     C
Mama, you're just on my mind
C/G E7 Am D7/F# C E Am Fmaj7
      C               G      C
Well, mama you're just on my mind
[Verse 5]
      C/G                                                      E7
When you wake up in the morning, baby look inside your mirror

                          Am                        D7/F#
You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near

    C                   E               Am                Fmaj7
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear

    C                  G           C
As someone who has had you on his mind
