Mama Spice Girls
Mama - Spice Girls
Tabbed by Adam Bishop
Capo 1
All tab is relative to capo....so a "9" is actually played at fret 10.
C/G - 332010
D/F# - 200232
Em7 - 022033
G - 320033
You don't really need to play the G or F# bass notes but I think it sounds
better that way.
Intro (violin or cello, somemthing like that):
[C/G] [D/F#] [Em7] [D/F#] [G] [C/G]
E|----------------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------------------| G|-------------9----11--9-----------11--9-------------------| D|-10----12----------------12--9-----------12--9----12------| A|------------------------------------------------------10--| E|----------------------------------------------------------|
[C/G] [D/F#] [Em7] [D/F#] [G] [C/G]
E|----------------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------------------| G|-------------9----11--9-----------11--9-------------------| D|-10----12----------------12--9-----------12--9----12/14---| A|----------------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------------|
[C/G]She used to be my only enemy, never [D/F#]letting me be [Em7]free
[D/F#]Catching me in places [G]that I knew I [C/G]shouldn't be
Every other day I crossed the line, I didn't [D/F#]mean to be so [Em7]bad
I [D/F#]never thought you would be[G]come the friend I [C/G]never had
(With intro riff)
Back then I didn't know why, why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes, all that you did was love
Mama I love you, mama I care
Mama I love you, mama my friend
My friend
(Riff)
Riff (this is a flute or something, and it's probably not right):
[C/G] [D/F#] [Em7] [D/F#] [G]
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-12-12-12--12p10h12p10-12/13\12p10h12------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------11-10----10-10-10--10p8h10p8-| A|-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
[C/G]
E|-------------------| B|-------------------| G|-------------------| D|-10/11\10p8h10-----| A|---------------8-8-| E|-------------------|
I didn't want to hear it then but I'm not ashamed to say it now
Every little thing you said and did was right for me
I had a lot of time to think about, about the way I used to be
Never had a sense of my responsibility
Chorus
Riff
Mama I'm sure I know why, why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes, all I can give you is love
Mama I love you, mama I care
Mama I love you, mama I care
(With Riff)
Mama I love you, mama I care
Mama I love you, mama I care
Repeat, with different words sometimes, for a few minutes until fadeout
