A
When Jack was born
A
He winked at Mom
D
Her pretty face
A
Was the first he saw
Bm A
Was Jack wrong, cause he loved... Mom?
[Verse]
A
Things went bad
A
'fore they got worse
D
Momma would pinch Jack
A
Until it hurt
Bm A
Momma thought her boy was... cursed

You leave, leave, leave that boy to me

Oh, Jack, I love him

You leave that boy to me

I know his condition
E A D A
And soon he'll be set free
[Verse]
A
Off at school
A
Jack was cruel
D
He'd become
A
The bully's bull
Bm A
Was Jack wrong to mimic... Mom?
A
And after school
A
From the corner stool
D
Mom was kissin'
A
On the golden rule
Bm A
Jack had become a teacher's... fool
[Chorus]

You leave, leave, leave that man to me

Oh Mom I love you

With my will, my hands, like old Solomon

And in your honor, I'm gonna cut that man in half

[Bridge]
A
All the lessons that Momma would teach
A
Books from Rome and ancient Greece
D
Men who pushed rocks from stony mountains
A
Turnin' one fish into five thousand
Bm
A king who went blind from a mother's love
A
Till a rage came over Jack
A
With Momma lyin' on her back
D
The one who taught him right from wrong
A
Who'd known better all along
Bm A
She got rammed through when Jack killed his mom
[Chorus]
A D E A D A
Don't leave, don't leave, don't leave this world to me
A D
Oh Mom I love you
E A D A
I didn't mean to set you free

With my will, my hands, like old Solomon

Oh Mom I love you

I didn't mean to set you free
