[E] [B] [A]
[B]
[E] If [B] only I [E] could see again The [A]
twinkle in [E] my mother's [B]
eyes
[E] To [B] hear again [E] her gentle [A] voice [E]
And have her hold me [B] when [E] I cry
If [B]
only she [A] could be [E] here now [B] To help me free [A] my troubled [B] mind
I [E] wonder [B]
if [E] my mother [A] knows [E] Although I try, [B]
no [E] peace I find
[B] It [A] [B]
[E] [B] seems a hundred
[E] years ago That [A]
when I'd cry [E] she'd wipe [B] my tears
[E] And just [B] like magic [E] when [A] I'd fall [E] She'd be right there [B] to [E] calm my fears
[B] Oh, mom, if you [A] could only [E] see [B] The hurt and pain [A] I'm going [B]
through
[A] I [B] [E]
[B] must have cried [E] ten million [A]
tears [E] Since the tears I cried
[B] When [E] I lost you [B]
I [A] [B]
[C] [F] know [C] you're never [F] far away
[Bb] I almost feel [F] you close [C] to me [F] Oh, [C] how I'd love to [F] hold your [Bb]
hand
[F] Your loving smile [C] I'd love [F] to see
But [C] in my heart [Bb] you're still [F] alive I [C]
think about [Bb] you [C] every day
Oh, [F]
[C] mother dear, [F] why did [Bb] you die [F] And leave me [C] here so far [F] away?
