[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [F]
[Bb]
Mama [Eb] didn't have [Bb] special training, she couldn't read the music, [F] just the words.
[Bb] But when she'd stand [Eb] to sing on [Bb] Sunday morning, she had the sweetest voice [F] I think I've [Bb] ever heard.
She loved to [Cm] sing the [Eb] songs about [Bb] her savior.
There is a fountain was her [F] favorite one, and [Bb] I've seen tears [Eb] roll down the cheeks [Bb] of sinners.
By the [F] time my mama's [Bb] song was done, when mama [Eb] sang the angels stopped [Bb] to listen.
You could see the love light shining in [F] her [C] face, [F]
[Bb] when mama [Eb] sang the angels stopped [Bb] to listen.
Now in heaven's choir [F] she had a [Bb] special place.
[Eb] [Bb] [F]
[Bb]
[C] [Bb] You [Eb] know my daddy wanted me to sing some [Gm] [Bb] the day that mama left us.
And you know that little church was filled with all mama's [F] friends.
[Gm]
[F] [Bb] And you know [Eb] it seemed that we could all hear [Bb] mama singing.
When I couldn't [F] finish up her [Bb] favorite thing, when mama [Eb] sang the angels stopped [Bb] to listen.
You could see the love light shining in [F] her [C] face, [F]
[C] [Bb] when mama [Eb] sang the angels stopped [Bb] to listen.
Now in heaven's [F] choir she had a [Bb] special place, [Gm]
[Bb] when mama [Eb] sang the angels stopped to [Fm] listen.
[Bb] [Eb] [F] [Bbm] [Bb]
