Intro:

[Dm]       [C]      [Am]                        
*Verse*

[Dm]Mama she has taught me well
[C]Told me when I wa[Am]s young
[Dm]Son your life's an open book
Don't [C]close it before it's [Am]done
[Dm]The brightest flame burns quickest
Thats [C]what I heard her[Am] say
[D]The son's heart's owed to mother
But [C]I must find my[Am] way....

*Chorus*

[Dm]Let [C]my [Am]heart [G]go
[Dm]Let [C]your [Am]son [G]grow
Mama [Dm]let [C]my [Am]heart [G]go
Mama [Dm]let t[C]his [Bb]heart [G]be [Am]still.

*Intro again*

*Verse 2*

[Dm]Remember my new last name
[C]Wild blood in my [Am]veins
[Dm]Draping the strings around my neck
The [C]mark that still[Am] remains
[Dm]Left home at an early age
    [C]               [Am]                  
of what I heard was wrong (?)
[Dm]I never asked forgiveness
For [C]what is said i[Am]s done....


*Chorus*

[Dm]Let [C]my [Am]heart [G]go
[Dm]Let [C]your [Am]son [G]grow
Mama [Dm]let [C]my [Am]heart [G]go
Mama [Dm]let t[C]his [Bb]heart [G]be [Am]still.

*Bridge*

[Dm]Never I [G]asked of you
[C]but never I[F] gave
[Dm]But you gave me your[G] emptiness
[C]that I'll take to [F]my grave
[Dm]Never I [G]asked of you
[C]but never I[F] gave
[Dm]But you gave me [G]your emptiness
that I'll t[C]ake to my [F]grave
So le[Dm]t thi[C]s he[Bb]art be[G] st[Am]ill.

*Verse 3*

[Dm]Mama now I'm coming home
I'm not a[C]ll you wished of[Am] me
[Dm]A mother's love for her son
[C]was spoken he[Am]avily(?)
[Dm]yeah I took your love for granted
and all the[C] things you said [Am]to me
[Dm]I need your arms to welcome me
That [C]cold stone's all [Am]I see.....

*Chorus*

[Dm]Let [C]my [Am]heart [G]go
[Dm]Let [C]your [Am]son [G]grow
Mama [Dm]let [C]my [Am]heart [G]go
Mama [Dm]let t[C]his [Bb]heart [G]be [Am]still.
[Dm]Let [C]my h[Am]eart [Dm]go
Mama [Dm]let [C]my h[Am]eart [Dm]go

You never [Dm]let [C]my h[Am]eart [Dm]go
Mama [Dm]let t[C]his [Bb]heart [G]be [Am]still.
*Bridge*

(solo over Dm G C F twice)

[Dm]Never I [G]asked of you
[C]but never I[F] gave
[Dm]But you gave me your[G] emptiness
[C]that I'll take to [F]my grave
[Dm]Never I [G]asked of you
[C]but never I[F] gave
[Dm]But you gave me [G]your emptiness
that I'll t[C]ake to my [F]grave
So le[Dm]t thi[C]s he[Bb]art be[G] st[Am]ill.
