[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
C It's raining in the mountains Am It's heading this way C It's supposed to rain tomorrow Am Or the next day F G Sure I get lonely C Am But a whole lot has changed F G Yours is the first voice I've heard in days
[Verse 2]
C Oh but mama if you don't mind Am Can we talk about something else C Mama please don't come over Am This ain't nothing you can help F G C G/B Am You'll be the first to know when I start to come around F G C I'm not drowning I'm just seeing how long I can stay down
[Chorus]
Am And mama she's gone F C And just a picture in a drawer F C G The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more C Mama she's gone
[Verse 3]
C Well you know there's nothing tying me Am to this town now that she's gone C Don't know why I ever come back Am Guess I just tagged along F G C G/B Am Can't believe that once I called this place my home F G C Cause I'm walking the streets and all I see is ghosts
[Chorus]
Am Mama she's gone F C And just a picture in a drawer F C G The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more C Mama she's gone
[Instrumental]
C Am C Am F G C Am F (this is not right, but close-ish)
[Bridge]
F C Lonely, lonely and wondering where I am F G And I know the love I see was over long before it began
[Verse 4]
C And now the rain's getting closer Am Midnight's coming on C The wind seems to whisper Am You fool you know she's gone F G C G/B Am I still leave the gate unlatched just in case she staggers home F G C Mama said she was no good And now she's gone
