Mama You Been On My Mind

C  Am  F  G  C


[Verse 1]
         C
When you wake up in the morning baby look inside your mirror
           Am               Dm              G
I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near
       C                                        Am
I'd be curious to know if your reflection is as clear
       Dm                G     C
As the one that I've got on my mind
F              G     C
Mama, you been on my mind

[Verse 2]
     C                                                        Am
Well perhaps it's the wind and the dark dark night that's covering
    Dm                  G
The crossroads that I'm at
    C                                        Am
And maybe it's the weather or something like that
    Dm             G     C
But mama, you been on my mind
F              G     C
Mama, you been on my mind

Am  F  G


[Verse 3]
       C
Well I don't need trouble, please don't put me down
                 Am                   Dm                G
Don't get upset, I am not pleading, I won't say I'll forget
    C                                            Am
And I won't pace a floor bowed down and bent but yet
Dm             G     C
Mama, you been on my mind
F              G     C
Mama, you been on my mind


[Instrumental]
Am  F  G


[Verse 4]
     C
Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts are kinda narrow
          Am                               Dm        G
Where you been don't bother me or bring me down with sorrow
         C                                        Am
It don't matter to me where you'll be waking up tomorrow
    Dm            G     C
But mama you been on my mind
F             G     C
Mama you been on my mind
