Misc Musicals – Suffs - A Letter From Harrys Mother (Guitar)

E    A
Dear Harry

      E                      A
I've never sent a telegram before

        E                         A
I drove all the way to town in a down part

             B                              A
So, I sure hope this reaches you in time before your vote today

             B
I'm really proud you own that office

     A                             D  A
And son, there's something I must say

        E                               A
Your father gave his life in the great war three years ago

   E                                   A
I know I'll be kicked out of McMinn County for saying so

   B                         A
I hate this president for making him go

       B                                   F#
And I wish I'd have the right to vote him out

                       C#m           F#m           B
Now I know I'm just an old farmer's widow milking cows in Tennessee

          C#                                 F#m
But I've read the paper, and I've seen the women marching to be free

     Amaj7                           E                  A         D
They make me think that maybe I can hop the train to Washington, DC and march too

           Am6/C
Only I was home raising you

       B7
So, I did my best to teach you what I knew

      E                              A
Now your own little girl is nearly three

  E                            A
What do you want her future to be?

      B
Vote aye for her, my son

G#7                        C#m
Let your mama know she raised a good one

     B                               A
And oh, I made that meatloaf you like

                             A
So come on home when you're done

Am6
With lots of love

    Eadd2
Mama
