[C] [Am]
[D]
[C] She [G]
was just 16 and all alone [C] when I came to [Am] be.
So [D] we grew up together, [C] [C] my mama, child, and [G] me.
Now things were bad and she was scared, but whenever I would [Am] cry,
she'd [D] calm my fears and dry my [C] tears with a rock and roll [G]
lullaby.
And she'd sing, [D]
shananananananana, [Am] it'll be alright.
[C] [D]
Shananananananana, [G] just hold on tight.
Sing it to me, mama, mama, [Am] mama, sing [C] it sweet and clear,
[D]
[C] a rock and roll [G] lullaby.
[Am]
[C]
[G]
We made it through the lonely [D] days, [C] but Lord, the nights [Am] were long.
[D] And we'd dream of better mornings [C] when mama sang her [G]
song.
Now I can't recall the words at all, [C] it don't make sense to try,
[Am] [D] cause I just knew lots of love came through [C] in that rock and roll [G]
lullaby.
And she'd sing, shananananananana, [Am] it'll be alright.
[C] [D]
Shananananananana, [G] just hold on tight.
I can hear you, mama, mama, mama, [Am] mama,
nothing [C] moves my soul like [A] the sound of a good [C] old rock and roll [G]
lullaby.
[Am]
[C]
[G]
[Am]
[D]
[A] [G] Just hold on tight.
Mama, [Am] mama, nothing [C] moves my soul like the [D] sound of a good old [C] rock and roll [G] lullaby.
Shananananananana,
[Am]
[C] shananananananana.
