Chords for Mother's Only Sleeping

_ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _
I left my old home _ way [C#] back in the mountains _ _
Since mother _ and father _ [F#] both passed away _ _
We followed her mother _ _ [C#] up to the graveyard _
For mother was called _ [F#] to heaven that day _ _
Mother's not dead, she's [C#] only asleep
Just a place she _ wept for Jesus to come _
A bird to be _ seen while [C#] mother's asleep _ _ _
They all sang, oh, _ the [F#] grave sang _ _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _
Oh how we _ missed her [C#] around the old home
Everything _ seemed so long _ since [F#] she's gone away _ _ _
Mother is sleeping _ way [C#] back in the mountains _ _
Yes, mother's _ _ sleeping way [F#] back in the _ mountains
Mother's not dead, _ she's [C#] only asleep _ _
Just a place she wept _ for [F#] Jesus to come _ _
A bird to be seen _ [C#] while mother's asleep
They _ all sang, oh, _ as the grave sank so [F#] way _ _
