    It's been thirty-one years

    Since she's been in your arms

Am            F
    But don't worry about Mama

C   G
    Mama's got a good heart

Am              F

    Is where I put you down to lay

             C           G
    So I can live with it

              Am            F
    And in my heart heart heart

                    C     G 
    there are these waters

            Am              F  
    Where I put you down to lay

                     C          G

    And it's been all my life

Am            F
    I've been wondering on the inside

Am          F 
    What we could've had

C            G
    If you'd had a part in my life

Am                 F
    And there were children involved

Am                F 
    And they were brothers to me

Am       F 
    Even if we 

    C            G
    never got to meet

    And in my heart heart heart

                    C     G

    Until I'm free at last 

              Am 
    from this shadow that hangs

               F
    Surely you wonder sometimes

                     C        G 
    And I'm sure you all sympathize

                C
    Just what a man's to become,

                  Am
    just like his daddy's done

                   F
    I just want to love someone
