| Momma please don't | go |
| A | E | |
| Won't you stay here for | one more day |
| I've been you boy for so long now |
| There's so much I have to say |
| Scareb's open and I held my heart in my hand |
| Like a soldier on his very last day |
| Cried myself to sleep at night |
| And I listened as I heard the angels say Sha la la |
| (the chords in the chorus may be wrong, please |
| advise if they are) |
| E F#m D A* |
| Sha la la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home |
| Sha la la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home |
| Something inside of me makes me scream |
| How could it got to you from a little boy |
| You'll be all right he is by my side |
| He's not a little boy, he's my pride and joy Sha la la la |
| Sha la la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home |
| Sha la la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home |
| (solo) |
| Summer on the radio |
| and the phone rang |
| and it was Jeannette |
| Dear boy we have to let her go |
| I begged no, no not yet |
| you left six of us to fend for ourselves |
| Guess it's just part of someone's master plan |
| We'll see you left cause your my best friend |
| you were a light to them |
| and I smiled when the angels sang sha la la la |
