things that we take for granted

It's taken off my first album
And in fact, this is probably one of the saddest songs [D] that I have recorded to date
[A] It tells the story of [D] a mother
Who [A] didn't have enough money [D] to go out and buy all [A] the things she would have liked [D] for herself
Or her children things that we take for granted
like new clothes
So she used to [G] have to sit up late at night
Long after they'd all gone to bed

_ Of mama _ alone [D] in the kitchen _
_ Mending clothes by a little oil [A] light _ _
_ [D] She'd sew
[A] Till her fingers [D] were swollen _
Till she couldn't keep sleep _ [G] from her eyes _
_ And daddy would go in [D] to wake her _

There won't be
[A] Any patches
[D] in heaven _
You look so pretty with a halo [G] in your hair _ _
_ And if angels are judged by [D] the deeds they have done
Mom, you'll be the [A] best-dressed

[D] That I gave her _
_ She smiled and [F#] then [G] bowed her head _ _
_ She said honey
The kids need [D] these things
More than I do
And the tears
