Start Jamming...
[A]
You always did what you wanted to do
We gave you all, that's when [Bm] we lost you
We thought it would be [E] for your good
All this time you were up [A] to no good
The lawmen one day came for you
They took you away, that's when we [B] lost [Bm] you
You turned our lives [E] all around
You made our world come [A] crashing down
It's hard to see [Bm] your son become [A] a bum
Smoke and drink with all [Bm] his chums
Late at night I [E] often cry
To see the tears in your [A] mother's eyes
When you were born your mama cried
To dead man you still make [Bm] her cry
To see her son in so [E] much pain
All her dreams are now [A] in vain
In the bedroom behind closed door
Late at night your [B] mama [Bm] cried
Praying God and [E] saying please
Facing hands on [A] her knees
It's hard to see your son become a bum
Smoke and drink with all [Bm] his chums
Late at night I [E] often cry
To see the tears in your [A] mother's eyes
Since
[Bm]
[E]
[A]
your mama has passed away
Your life you changed for [Bm] better way
Your family was always [E] there for you
Your mother and I have [A] forgiven you
The bit of time I have for you
Before God comes and [Bm] cleanses me too
For all the pain you [E] put us through
We never did stop [A] loving you
It's hard to see your son become a bum
Smoke and drink with [Bm] all his chums
Late at night I [E] often cry
To see the tears in your [A] mother's eyes
It's hard to see your son become a bum
Smoke and drink with [Bm] all his chums
Late at night I [E] often cry
To see the tears in your [A] mother's eyes
To see your son in [Bm] so much pain
[E] Our dreams are [A] now in vain
Goodbye son
