[VERSE 1] w/rhythm fig.1
 
   Mama, she's taught me well
   told me when I was young
   Son your life's  an open book   don't
w/substitute rhythm fill 1
   close it fore it's done          The
w/resume Rhythm fig.1 <3 bars>
  brightest flame burns quickest    That's
  what I heard her say                  a
  son's heart's owed to mother,         but
  C                Am            (both open chords strike only once)
  I must find my way

Mama she has taught me well
Told me when I was young
"Son your life's an open book
Don't close it 'fore its done"
The brightest flame burns quickest
That's what I heard her say
A son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Yeah, still
Rebel, my new last name
Wild blood in my veins
Apron strings around my neck
The mark that still remains
Left home at an early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what is said is done
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still
Mama, now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
A mother's love for her son
Unspoken, and maybe
Yeah, I took your love for granted
And all the things you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But, a cold stone's all I see
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Let my heart go
Mama, let my heart go
You never let my heart go
So let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still

Mama she has taught me well
Told me when I was young
"Son your life's an open book
Don't close it 'fore its done"
The brightest flame burns quickest
That's what I heard her say
A son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Yeah, still
Rebel, my new last name
Wild blood in my veins
Apron strings around my neck
The mark that still remains
Left home at an early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what is said is done
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still
Mama, now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
A mother's love for her son
Unspoken, and maybe
Yeah, I took your love for granted
And all the things you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But, a cold stone's all I see
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Let my heart go
Mama, let my heart go
You never let my heart go
So let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still

Mama she has taught me well
Told me when I was young
"Son your life's an open book
Don't close it 'fore its done"
The brightest flame burns quickest
That's what I heard her say
A son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Yeah, still
Rebel, my new last name
Wild blood in my veins
Apron strings around my neck
The mark that still remains
Left home at an early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what is said is done
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still
Mama, now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
A mother's love for her son
Unspoken, and maybe
Yeah, I took your love for granted
And all the things you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But, a cold stone's all I see
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Let my heart go
Mama, let my heart go
You never let my heart go
So let this heart be still
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
So let this heart be still

Lyrics:
 
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 owned 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
Or let this heart be still.
 
 
*Intro again*
 
 
*Verse 2*
 
Dm
Rebel my new last name
C                Am
Wild blood in my veins
Dm
Apron 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
So 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
And now 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
And now 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
Unspoken hear me be
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
But a 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
Or let this heart be still...
Dm  C   Am   G
Let my heart go
     Dm  C   Am   G
Mama let my heart go
          Dm  C   Am   G
You never let my heart go
    Dm   C   Bb    G  Am
So let this heart be still....
 
 
*Solo*
 
 
*Bridge*
 
Dm      G
Never I asked of you
C          F
But never I gave
Dm                  G
But you gave me your emptiness
C                 F
And now 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
And now take to my grave

Dm            Dsus4     Dm
Mama, she has taught me well
C                  Am Asus2
Told me when I was young
Dm                  Dsus4 Dm
Son, your life's an open book
      C                   Am Asus4
Don't close it 'fore it's done
    Dm                    Dsus4 Dm
The brightest flame burns quickest
   C                Am Asus2
Is what I heard her say
  Dm          Dsus4    Dm
A son's heart sewed to mother
    C              Am
But I must find my way
 
 
[CHORUS: riff-2]
 
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 Asus2
Or let this heart be still
 
 
[2nd VERSE: riff-1]
 
Dm             Dsus4 Dm
Rebel my new last name
C                Am Asus2
Wild blood in my veins
Dm             Dsus4    D
Apron strings around my neck
    C                 Am Asus4
The mark that still remains
Dm              Dsus4 Dm
Left home at an early age
   C                Am Asus4
Of what I heard was wrong
  Dm             Dsus4 D
I never asked forgiveness
    C               Am
But what is said is done

Never I ask of you

But never I gave

I'm not all you wished of me
  Dm                Dsus4 Dm
A mother's love for her son
C               Am Asus2
Spoken, help me be
        Dm                 Dsus4 Dm
Well, I took your love for granted

And all the things you said to me
  Dm                Dsus4   Dm
I need your arms to welcome me

But, a cold stone's all I see

Dm                        Dsus4 Dm         C                Am
The brightest flame burns quickest, that's what I heard her say.
Dm                        Dsus4 Dm    C              Am
