Johnny Rivers – Mother And Child Reunion (Ukulele)

F         C       |C   
 No I would not give you false hope  

       |F           C       |C  
On this strange and mournful day  

       |F          C      |C Dm  
But the mother and child reu-nion  

  |Dm     C      |C   |           |Dm              |  
Is only a motion away,  oh, little darling of mine.  

                |C         |  
 I can't for the life of me  

           |Dm        |  
 Remember a sadder day  

                |C        |  
 I know they say let it be  

                       |Dm          |  
 But it just don't work out that way  

                    |F            |  
 And the course of a lifetime runs  

         |C         |  
 Over and over again  

     |F         C       |C   
 No I would not give you false hope  

       |F           C       |C  
On this strange and mournful day  

       |F          C      |C Dm  
But the mother and child reu-nion  

  |Dm     C      |C   |           |Dm              |  
Is only a motion away,  oh, little darling of mine.  

               |C             |  
 I just can't believe it's so,  

                    |Dm            |  
 and though it seems strange to say  

             |C          |  
 I never been laid so low  

             |Dm         |  
 In such a mysterious way  

                    |F            |  
 And the course of a lifetime runs  

         |C         |  
 Over and over again  

      |F         C       |C   
 But I would not give you false hope  

       |F           C       |C  
On this strange and mournful day  

        |F          C      |C Dm  
When the mother and child reu-nion  

  |Dm     C      |C   |             
Is only a motion away,    

           |F          C      |C  
 Oh, oh the mother and child reunion  

  |F      C      |C    
Is only a motion away  

      |F          C      |C|Dm  
Oh the mother and child reu-nion  

  |Dm     C      |C  |  |C |  
Is only a moment away
