[Intro]
G C
    Here she comes now, now

G Bb
    Gone, gone, gone

G C
    Ready, ready, ready, ready, ready

G Bb
    Got my eyes wide open
[Verse]
C                    F
  Ever since I was on cripple Monday

C                       F
  Got my eyeballs on my knees, I was baby walkin'

C                      F
 I was after hours with Mad Mary Williams

C                                       F
  Said she never understood a word from me, because...
[Chorus]
G                 F
  I know that she cares about me

                     G
I heard her call my name (Heard her call my name)

                 F
And I know she's long dead and gone (Heard her call my name)

                        G
But still it ain't the same, my my (Heard her call my name)

                           C
But when I wake up in this morning mama (Heard her call my name)

            F       G
I heard her call my name, give it a year (Heard her call my name)

                          C
I know that she's dead and long far gone (Heard her call my name)

            F       G
I heard her call my name

                               F
Then I felt my mind split open...

    Here it comes down, down

G Bb
    Just gone, gone, gone

G C
    Ready, ready, ready, ready, ready

G Bb
    Got my eyes wide open
[Verse]
C                     F
  Ever since I was on cripple Monday

C                       F
  Got my eyeballs on my knees

C                        F
  Uh, after hours with-uh Mad Mary Williams

C                                       F
  Said she never understood a word from me, aw...
[Chorus]
G            F
  I know she cares about me

                   G
I heard her call my name, work it here now

                     F
I said that she's-uh long dead and gone

                        G
But still she ain't the same, she's tweekin' on ether

                          C
But when I woke up in the morning mama

            F       G
I heard her call my name, long gone

                            C
I know she's dead and she's long far gone

                        F     G
But still I heard her call my name

                            F
And then my mind split open...
