[Intro]
A

[Verse 1]
A
I said goodbye to that plain little mining town
D
With just a few old clothes that had made the rounds
A D
I knew I was leaving a lot of things that were good
A E
But I thought I'd make a break while I still could

[Verse 2]
A
As I looked back to wave once more
D
To mama crying in the door
A D
For me and for what the world might have in store
A E
For she knew, I'd never be her little girl no more

[Verse 3]
A
She was drifting back to another time
D
When she was young and hoped to find
A D
A better life than what her mama's had been
A E
And it was hard to let go of mama's hand
A
My mama's hand

[Chorus]
E D A
One old paper bag full of hand-me-downs
E D E
Plain old country girl raised on gospel sound
A D
With only the love she gave me, pride in what I am
A E
And it was hard to let go of mama's hand
A
My mama's hand

[Instrumental]
A
