Chords

[Intro] G C G [Verse]
G     C                  G
Mama, I hear you calling tonight

G              C                     G
Your old song, calling me in for the night

       G           C                              G
In the tall grass, down from the trees where I've climbed

    G                      C                            G
The day is gone, the birds sing their last songs in the pines

  C                             Am
I hear your voice calling by the back door light

   G          C        Em
It reaches as far as I roam

     C          G/F#        G
It's calling me all the way home
[Verse]
G          C                     G
Mama, the darkness is falling so fast

G          C                            G
Somehow, I thought the day would always last

G                  C                   G
And I am afraid as I walk alone in the night

G             C                          G
Following the sound of your voice by the light

     C                             Am
Your sweet voice is calling by the back door light

   G          C        Em
It reaches as far as I roam

     C         G/F#         Em
It's calling me all the way home

     C          G/F#        Em
It's calling me all the way home

C          G/F#        G
Calling me all the way home
[Outro]
G         C                       G
Mama, the night is so long and so deep

          G             C                        G
Won't you stay a while, stay with me here till I sleep
