[Intro]
G7 C

[Verse 1]
C G7
I never shall forget the day
G C
I heard my dear old mother say
C F
"I'm leaving now the old home dear
C G C
Remember Jack, your mother's prayer"

[Verse 2]
C G7
She left me as the golden sun
G C
Behind the hill top it did hide
C F
And when I found that she had gone
C G C
I laid my guitar down and cried

[Chorus]
E F C
And now she's gone this world is drear
D7 D G G7
I long to have dear mother here
C F
She's gone to join the angels there
C G C
I'll not forget my mother's prayer

[Verse 3]
C G7
The birds were still, no sound was made
G C
The organ sad, but sweetly played
C F
As by her side we gathered there
C G C
Our heads bowed down in silent prayer

[Verse 4]
C G7
We laid here where the fragrant rose
G C
Was blooming o'er her lonely grave
C F
And now in answer to her prayer
C G C
I'll meet dear mother some sweet day

[Chorus]
