Chords for Mom's Lullaby

[Bb] Thank [Dm] you very much.
I'm going to go from one song [G] about a mother to another entirely different song about a [Dm] mother.
Do we have any mothers here this afternoon?
_ I mean that as an entire word by the way.
[N] _ _
_ _ _ _ Your mommy's right over there.
_ _ _ _ Hi mom. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ If you're the mother of a young child, _ _ right there, right there. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] Now if you're the mother of a young child, you'll be able to relate to this song [D] immediately. _
[Bb] And if you're the mother of a child that's a little bit older, the memories will come flooding back.
And if you're not a mommy yet, this song may cause you to have second thoughts about the whole procedure.
It's called Mom's Lullaby.
