_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ Goodbye, [A] Mama.
[E] Goodbye to you too, Pa. _ _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ Little sister, you'll have to wait a while [A] to come along. _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ Goodbye [A] to this house and [E] all its memories. _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ We just got too old to say [A] we're wrong. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ I've got to make [A] one last trip to my bedroom. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ I guess I'll have [A] to leave some stuff behind. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ [B] It's funny how [A] the same old crooked pictures, _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] they just don't seem the [A] same to me tonight. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ There ain't [A] no use in shedding no [E] more tears, Ma. _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ There ain't no use in shouting at [A] me, Pa. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ I [A] can't live no longer with your [E] fears, Ma. _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ I love you, but that hasn't helped at [A] all. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] Because each of us must [A] do the things that matter. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ All of us must [A] see what we can see. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] Though it was long [A] ago, you must remember, _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#] you [B] were once as [A] young and scared as me. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ I [A] don't know how hard it is [E] yet, Ma, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ when you realize you're growing [A] old. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ I know how [A] hard it is now to [E] be younger. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ And I know you've tried [C#] to keep me from [A] the cold. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] And thanks for all you've [A] done, it may sound hollow. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] But thank you for the [A] good times that we've known. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ But I must find [A] my own road now to follow. _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] You will all be [A] welcome in my home. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ I've got [A] my suitcase, [E] I must go now. _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ And I don't mind about the things you [A] said. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ I'm [A] sorry, Ma, I don't know where [E] I'm going. _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#m] _ [F#] _ _ Remember, little sister, look [A] ahead. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] Tomorrow [A] I'll be in some other sunrise. _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ [B] Maybe I'll [A] have someone at my side. _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] Mama give your [A] love back to your husband. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ [C#m] _
[B] Father, you [A] have taught me well. _ _ _
Goodbye. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ Goodbye, [A] Mama. _
[E] Goodbye to you too, Pa.
