It's the hardest song I ever wrote in my life. I must have cried a million tears. I wasn't going to write it at first,
Cm
Gm
Bb
Dm
Gm
Cm
Gm
Cm
Gm
Dm
Gm
Cm
Gm
but I figured if I could do a song recognizing everything else, it's only right to write about the woman who gave me life.
Dm
So this is dedicated to my momma,
Gm
Dm
Gm
an d all the other mommas that's not here today.
Straight from the heart,
Bb
Gm
straight from the
Cm
I got a call in the waiting room, from the nurse,
Gm
Bb
Dm
Gm
telling me to come upstairs, cause my momma's worse.
Cm
Gm
I was at my baby's bedside in a flash,
Dm
Gm
but the look on their faces told me she passed.
Cm
Gm
And everything went blank, I couldn't think,
Bb
Dm
Gm
I couldn't believe it, even though she wasn't breathing.
Cm
Gm
And the life support
machine was turned off
Bb
And the tubes removed from
Dm
Gm
my nose and mouth
Cm
Gm
I started trippin' and my
stepfather walks in and states,
Let her go, son, she's in a better place
Cm
Gm
Cm
Gm
She ain't sufferin' no more,
let her go, I won't
Dm
Gm
I should feel good for her, but I don't
Cm
And she didn't deserve
to go like that, gee
Gm
I wonder why the good
Dm
Bb
Gm
Lord didn't take me
Gm
I was pickin' up the telephone
Dm
Callin' up my sisters and brothers,
Cm
tellin' them I'm gone
Dm
Gm
a hearse can a lie

Gm
Cm
Gm
A crowd of people gathered round,

Up drove a hearse,

Gm
It had my precious mother
Dm
Bb
Dm
Gm
in the back
Cm
Gm
Ever since you left here,
Cm
Gm
things done changed
Christmas,
New
Gm
Thanksgiving ain't the same
Cm
Gm
Without your button smile,
and since you're here
Bb
And everybody missed you
Dm
at the family reunion
Gm
Cm
Especially me,
Gm
Cm
Gm
Cm
I tried to play strong
Gm
Bb
Looked around, didn't see you,
Dm
Gm
couldn't stay long
Cm
Gm
Cause there's tears in my
eyes from your death
Bb
And if I'm gonna cry,
Gm
I'm gonna cry by myself
Cm
Gm
It hurts me to drive to your gravesite
And visit on your birthday
But it's only right,
Cm
Gm
I can't believe that your name is on a stone
Dm
Buried in the ground, when
Mother's
Gm
Cm
Day rolled around
Now that you're gone,
Gm
Cm
Gm
I realize how much pain and misery
Dm
Gm
You went through because of me
Cm
Gm
Going to jail, raising hell, getting kicked
Dm
Out of school for fights and keep
Gm
ing you up late at night
Cm
Gm
When you had to go to
Cm
work the next morning
Gm
Bb
So I could have food to eat
Dm
Gm
and shoes on my feet
Cm
Gm
And a place to stay,
but being young and dumb
I couldn't understand it,
Dm
Gm
Dm
Gm
so I took you for granted
Cm
Gm
Cm
I had a witness, you missed it, boo
Gm
Dm
Gm
My little baby girl blew a kiss at you
Cm
She never got to see her granny
Gm
But I told her about your spirit
Dm
Eb
Gm
And if she call your name, you can hear it
Cm
Gm
Dm
I drove a hearse, a hearse caroline

A lot of people gathered round,
Dm
Gm
dressed in black
Cm
Gm
Cm
Gm
Cm
Gm
Drove the hearse, this
Dm
Cadillac
Gm
Cm
Gm
It had my precious mother,
Bb
Dm
Gm
in my lap
Cm
Gm
Be good to your mama
while you still got her
Dm
Hug her and kiss her cause when she
Gm
gone you're gonna miss her
Cm
Gm
I wish I could've written verse
Cause words can't express the pain
Dm
Gm
that I felt when I saw the hearse
Cm
Gm
Cm
Gm
Drive off with my mama inside,
Bb
Dm
taking her for a last ride
Gm
Cm
I nearly died,
Gm
cause that's how I felt boss
Dm
Putting a gun to my head and blowing
Bb
Gm
the motherfucker off
Cm
But she would've wanted
Throw ten up,
Cm
Gm
not pin up and lift my chin up
Cm
Gm
She would've told me get your money,
keep making moves
Bb
Dm
And take care of your nieces
Cm
Gm
Mama you're gone,
Cm
it's hard being without you
Gm
Dm
It ain't a day that goes by
Gm
I don't think about you
Cm
Gm
Everybody's saying count your
Cm
Gm
blessings and we'll
Cm
But they don't know how I feel
Gm
Cm
Gm
Cm
Gm
I can't believe this
Dm
I remember the day the
It was yesterday

Gm
The whole world collapsed

Gm
It was like
All the arguments and the resentment

When you treated me

It has not crushed us no
