Hi guys!

That's a gr8 song from the 'new' Metallica : it's in their last album,

'Load'. It's called 'Mama Said'. I've found out only the chords : forgive me

if they're not right! :^)

Main Verse : C#min ( listen to the song to find out when you have to move your

little finger to the 7th fret of B string and then back

again )

[B] [-] [G#min] Chorus : 3x C#min - B - G#min - F#

1x C#min - B - A - F# - G#

Then what we can call a Second Chorus : C#min - F# - B - E

which finishes like the Chorus : C#min - B - A - F# - G#

If you play it one half step higher, it becomes much easier. Sounds like :

Dmin - C - Amin etc... I think Metallica have their guitars tuned this way

for this song.

That's all! Sorry if there aren't the lyrics, but I'm Italian and I haven't

time to find them out now ( I've got my exams at University! :^) ). Please

e-mail me if this has been of some use for you ( and also if you have the

lyrics.. ;) ).

Ciao,

But I have to say that the intro I play a little bit different,but

it doesn`t matter:-)

Anyway I didn`t figure it out and author`s name is in the title

[Dm]Mama she has [Dmsus4]taught me well, told [Am]me when I was [C]young
Dm                  Dmsus4           Am                   C     =09
Son, your life's an open book, don't close it before it's done.
[Dm]The brightest flame burns [Dmsus4]quickest, that's[Am] what I heard her say[C].
[Dm]Son's heart sold to [Dmsus4]mother, but [Am]I must find my [C]way.
[Dm]Let [Am]my [C]heart [G]go
[Dm]Let [Am]your [C]son [G]grow
       Dm Am C     G  =20
Mama, let my heart go,
Or l[Dm]et [Am]this [Dm]heart [F]be s[Am]till.
[Dm]Never mind your [Dmsus4]last name, [Am]wild blood in my [C]veins.
[Dm]Wrapping strings a[Dmsus4]round my neck, the [Am]mark that still [C]remains.
[Dm]Left all that in an earl[Dmsus4]y age, of [Am]what I heard is [C]wrong.
[Dm]Never asked forg[Dmsus4]iveness but [Am]what I said is [C]done.
<Chorus>
[Dm]Never I [G]asked of you and [C]never you [F]gave,
        Dm           G =09
But you gave me your emptiness
And I'll [C]take to my [F]grave. (2)
So [Dm]let [Am]this [Dm]heart [F]be [Am]still.
=20
[Dm]Mama now I'm [Dmsus4]coming home, I'm not [Am]all you wished of [C]me.
[Dm]A mother's love [Dmsus4]for her son, [Am]spoken, let me [C]be.
[Dm]I took your love for [Dmsus4]granted, and [Am]all you said to [C]me.
[Dm]I need your arms to [Dmsus4]welcome me, but your [Am]cold stone's all I [C]see.
<Chorus X 2>
[Dm]Never I [G]asked of you and [C]never you [F]gave,
        Dm           G =09
But you gave me your emptiness
And I'll [C]take to my [F]grave. (2)
So [Dm]let [Am]this [Dm]heart [F]be [Am]still.

This is the way how I play this song
I guess , I`m sure, this is the best version on internet
But I have to say that the intro I play a little bit different,but
it doesn`t matter:-)
Anyway I didn`t figure it out and author`s name is in the title

     This is the right way, but I haven't figured it all out yet.
     Missing some solo parts and the chorus solo...
