[Cm] [G]
[Cm] Of things I should be thankful for I've had a goodly share
And as I sit here in the comfort of [D] a [G] cozy chair
[Ebm] My [F] fancy takes [Ebm] me to a humble east side [Bb] tenement
[Ebm] Three [F] flights up in the [Ebm] rear [Abm] to where [Ebm] my childhood days [Bb] were spent
[G] [Cm] It [Bm] wasn't much [Cm] like [G] paradise [Cm] amidst the dirt and [Fm] all
There sat the [Cm] sweetest angel,
[D] one [Fm] that I fondly [G] [D] call [Ab]
[G] [C] home
My Yiddisha mama,
[Cm] I need her more [D] than ever [G] now
My Yiddisha mama, [Gbm] [G] I'd love to kiss [Cm] that wrinkled brow
I long [Fm] to hold her hands once more [G] as in [Cm] days gone by
[Em] And [Gb] ask [G] her to forgive me for things I did that [Cm] made her cry
[B] How few were her pleasures,
[Cm] she never cared [D] for fashion [Gb] styles
[G] Her jewels and her treasures, she found them in her baby [Cm] smiles
[Ab] Oh, [Fm] I know [Cm] that I [Fm] am today [A] to that [D] dear little lady [Cm] so old and gray
[F] To that [A] wonderful [Ab] Yiddisha mama, [G]
[Cm] mama [G] mine
