B F#7 B
My mama loved my dad for fifty years
E B
And she worked along beside him in the fields
E B E
He never gave her much but he gave her all he had
B F#7 B
Dad's the only reason mama lived
B F#7 B
My mama's face would light up like a diamond
E B
Each time my daddy walked into the room
E B E
She'd stop what she was doing and put her arms around him
B F#7 B
Dad's the only world my mama knew
F#7 B
Mama never saw her roses bloom that year
E B
The angels came before the robin's song
E B
Mama said she didn't mind going on ahead
F#7 B
But heaven won't be heaven till daddy’s home
B F#7 B
When mama left she left dad a lonely man
E B
But he talked to mama like she was still here
E B E
He'd talk about the hard times and the good times that they'd had
B F#7 B
As his old mind slipped back across the years
F#7 B
Daddy never plowed his fields again
E B
He’d just sat down and wait his time to come
E B E
Then one day he said I think I hear a choir singing
B F#7 B
He closed his eyes and went to live with mom
E B
Lord I wanna thank you for the years they were here for me to love
E B
And though it's hard to let 'em go Lord I know I'd let 'em go again
F#7
If I could just have been there
B
And seen my mama's face when dad walked in
