[B]
[E]
Sitting alone [B] in an old rocking chair, I saw an old mother [E] with silvery hair.
She [Eb] seemed so [E] neglected [A] by those who [Db] should care.
[B] Rocking alone in an old [E] rocking chair, her hands were [Bm] calloused, [B] wrinkled and old.
A life of hard work was [E] the story they told, and I thought of angels [A] as I saw her there.
[B] Rocking alone in an old [E] rocking chair, [B]
[E]
bless her old heart, do you think she'd complain?
Though life has been bitter, [E] she'd live it again, and carry that cross [A] that is more [Db] than her share.
[B] Rocking alone in an old [E] rocking chair, it wouldn't take much [B] to gladden her heart.
[Gb] Just some small remembrance [E] on somebody's part, a letter would brighten [A] her [Db] empty life there.
[B]
Rocking alone in an old rocking [E] chair, I [B]
[B] [E]
know some kids [B] in an orphan's home,
who'd think [Ab] they [B] owned heaven [E]
if she was their own.
They'd never be willing [A] to let her [Db] sit there.
[B] Rocking alone in an old rocking [E] chair, I look at her [B] and I think what a shame.
The ones who forgot her, [E] she loves just the same, and I [Bbm] [E] think of angels [A] as I see [Bb] her there.
[B] Rocking alone in an old rocking [E] chair.
[Eb]
Sitting alone in [Dm]
a [Fm] rocking chair, I saw an old mother [Eb] with silvery hair.
She seemed so neglected [Ab] by those who should care.
[Bb] Rocking alone in an old [Eb] rocking chair,
her hands were all calloused [Bb] and wrinkled and old.
A life of hard work was [Eb] the story they told,
and I thought of [Ab] angels as I saw her there.
[Bb]
Rocking alone in an old [Eb]
rocking chair.
Bless her old heart, do [Bb] you think she'd complain?
Though life has been bitter, [Eb] she'd live it again,
and carry that cross that is [Ab] more than her share.
[Bb] Rocking alone in an old rocking [Eb] chair.
It wouldn't take much [Bb] just to gladden her heart.
Just some small remembrance [Eb] on somebody's part.
A letter would [Cm] brighten [Fm] her [Ab] empty life there.
[Bb] Rocking alone in an old [Eb] rocking chair.
I know some youngsters [Bb] in an orphan's home, who'd think they owned heaven [Eb] if she was their own.
They'd never be willing [Ab] to let her sit there.
[Bb] Rocking alone in an old rocking [Eb] chair.
I look at her [Bb] and I think what a shame.
The ones who forgot her, [Eb] she loves just the same.
And I think of angels [Ab] as I see her there.
[Bb] Rocking alone in an old [Eb] rocking chair.
