MAMA SANG A SONG
BILL ANDERSON
CAPO: 3rd FRET
SING:
C F E Am
(God put a song in the heart of an angel
Dm Em G7 C C
And softly she sang it to me)
SPOKEN:
F
I get to thinking lots of times
C
About back when I was a lad
F
Of the old home place where I grew up
C
Of the days both good and bad
Am
My overalls were hand-me-downs
D7 G
My shoes were full of holes

I used to walk four miles to school
C
Every day through the rain the sleet and the cold
F
I've seen the nights when my daddy would cry

For the things that his family would need
C G
But all he ever got was a badland farm
C
And seven hungry mouths to feed
Am F C
And yet and yet our home fire never flickered once
G C
Cause when all these things went wrong
G
Mama took the hymn book down and mama sang this song
SONG:
C F
(What a friend we have in Jesus)
SPOKEN:
C
I've been rocked to sleep many a night

To the tune of What a Friend
G7
And come morning Rock of Ages

Would wake me gently once again
