[G] When you wake up in the morning, baby, look inside your mirror, [A] I won't be next to you.
[D] You know I [G] won't be near.
I'd be curious to know if your reflection [A] is as clear as the one [G] that I've got on [C] my mind.
[D] [G] Mama, you've been [C] on my mind.
[Am] [F]
[G]
Well, perhaps it's the wind and the dark, dark night [A] that's covering the [Dm] [G] crossroads
that I'm at.
[C] And maybe it's the weather or [A] something like that.
But Mama, [G] you've been on [C] my mind.
[A] Mama, [C] you've been on my mind.
[Am] [F]
[G]
Well, [C] I don't need trouble.
Please don't put me down.
Don't get [A] upset.
I am not pleading.
[D] I won't say I'll [G] forget.
[C] And I won't pace the floor, bow down and bend.
[A] But yet, Mama, [Gm] you've been on [C] my mind.
[G] Mama, you've been on [C] my mind.
[A]
[Am] [F] [G]
[C] Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts are kind of narrow, [A] where you've been don't
bother me or bring me down [G] with sorrow.
[C] It don't matter to me where you'll be waking up [A]
tomorrow.
But Mama, [Gm] you've been on [C] my mind.
[A] Mama, [G] you've been on [C] my mind.
