[Verse 1]
G C
My momma sure was pretty way back when she was young
C G D
The boys all tried to win her but only my dad won;
G
You know she's still as pretty now
G C
That never changed down through the years
C G D G
But I’m the one who put the grey in my momma's long black hair
[Verse 2]
G C
I was wild and I was reckless and I guess I couldn't see
C G D
Why when I came home late each night, she’d be waiting up for me;
G C
I never heard her crying, or see her wipe away her tears
C G D G
But I'm the one who put the grey in my momma's long black hair
[Chorus]
C
I wish that I could change things now
G
But somе things you can't change;
C G D
I can only say, "Nomma, I love you, until my dying day"
G C
She's waiting up for mе right now by the window in her chair
C G D G
'Cause I'm the one who put the grey in my momma's long black hair
[Verse 3]
G C
And on the day I went to prison, she fell down on her knee's
C G D
And she cried out, "Lord please don’t take him, in his place, please take me"
G C
Oh Lord if theres a heaven, make sure she winds up my there
C G D G
'Cause I’m the one who put the grey in my momma's long black hair.
