Dm Mama she has taught me well C Am Told me when I was young Dm Son your life's an open book C Am Don't close it before it's done Dm The brightest flame burns quickest C Am Thats what I heard her say D The son's heart's owed to mother C Am But I must find my way....
*Chorus*
Dm C Am G Let my heart go Dm C Am G Let your son grow Dm C Am G Mama let my heart go Dm C Bb G Am Mama let this heart be still.
*Intro again*
*Verse 2*
Dm Remember my new last name C Am Wild blood in my veins Dm Draping the strings around my neck C Am The mark that still remains Dm Left home at an early age C Am of what I heard was wrong (?) Dm I never asked forgiveness C Am For what is said is done....
*Chorus*
Dm C Am G Let my heart go Dm C Am G Let your son grow Dm C Am G Mama let my heart go Dm C Bb G Am Mama let this heart be still.
*Bridge*
Dm G Never I asked of you C F but never I gave Dm G But you gave me your emptiness C F that I'll take to my grave Dm G Never I asked of you C F but never I gave Dm G But you gave me your emptiness C F that I'll take to my grave Dm C Bb G Am So let this heart be still.
*Verse 3*
Dm Mama now I'm coming home C Am I'm not all you wished of me Dm A mother's love for her son C Am was spoken heavily(?) Dm yeah I took your love for granted C Am and all the things you said to me Dm I need your arms to welcome me C Am That cold stone's all I see.....
*Chorus*
Dm C Am G Let my heart go Dm C Am G Let your son grow Dm C Am G Mama let my heart go Dm C Bb G Am Mama let this heart be still. Dm C Am Dm Let my heart go Dm C Am Dm Mama let my heart go Dm C Am Dm You never let my heart go Dm C Bb G Am Mama let this heart be still.
