[F#m] But I don't know yet, I
[F]
[A] Yeah, I [B] Yeah, [F#m] I
[F]
[A] [B] Mother,
[F#m] [F] may I
[A] [B] And I would say
[F#m] [F] Yes, sweet baby
[A] Take it [B]
away [F#m] tonight
[F] It won't be long, [A] [B] just
[F#m] remember
[F] The powerful is a woman [A] in you
[B] Instead, [D] true love
And [A] she'd come to me
[E] When fire and [F#m] water was [A] gone
[D] To [A] caress the empty
[C#] With a song
[D] Saying, why [A] cry for rain
[E] And [F#m] bullet the sky
[A] [D] Just remember, [A] now remember
[C#] Mama, now [F#m] goodbye
[F]
[A] [B]
[F#m] [F] And I know my face
[A] [B] Seems crazed and [F#m] wild
But [F] I got her [A] eye
Of my [B] mother's child [F#m] And I
She's [F] blessed with grace
[A] [B] Smooth
[C#] [F#m] as a line
[F] And when I [A] shade
She [B] helps me [C#] shine
[D] And she [A] comes to me
[E] When there's nothing [F#m] I [A]
believe
[D] And holds [A] me so high
[C#] Yes, I am free
[D] Saying, why hold [A] the anger
[E] It won't let you [F#m] [A] fly
Just [D] remember, [A] now remember
[C#] Cause mama
[B] Now [F#m] goodbye
[C#] Yeah, yeah, [F#m] yeah, yeah, yeah
[F] [A]
[D#] [C#] [F#m]
[B] [F] [A]
[B] [C#] [D] [F#m]
Confused by my own illusion
She said that it's only my pride
[A] [D] And [A]
even simplest [C#] solutions
[F#m] Won't heal my mind
[D] So [A] I'll [C#] remember
[F] Right [F#m] [F] by [A] your [B]
side
Yeah, I [F#m] did
