CHORUS:
 C    F    C                F
Dear Mama,  now that we're older 
C               F            C           F
We can see the load on your tired, old shoulders
 C               F
Mama, you're a trooper
 C               F
Mama, you're a soldier
 C         G            C
Mama, you mean a lot to me
 
 
VERSE:
 C                 F
She always got me out of bed 
 C
Early Sunday morn
     G
And took me off to church
                F              C
Where I could learn about the Lord 
 
 
VERSE:
 C             F              C
Mama tried to tell me how my life was gong to be
    G                                F              C
But I was young and wild and it was hard for me to see
 
 
CHORUS:
 C    F    C                F
Dear Mama,  now that we're older 
C               F            C           F
We can see the load on your tired, old shoulders
 C               F
Mama, you're a trooper
 C               F
Mama, you're a soldier
 C         G            C
Mama, you mean a lot to me

 C                 F                                           C
Mama, you always taught me right from wrong when I was growing up 
                           F                      C                     F
And it's a pity that most people like me have to try everything for themselves. 
C              F                             C                F
I realize now you always knew just what you were talking about 
     C                      F
And mama for all that hard work you did 
 C
And for the sacrifices you made for us. 
G                            C
I just want to say thanks a lot.
