Mama Cry

 G                      A         D
Mama, please don't you cry, I'm sorry
 G                      A        D
I just caught some time, I'll be home soon
G              A          D
It won't be long, I promise
G             A             D
I will be okay, just wipe those
 G                      A         D
Tears off of your face, I'm sorry
 G                      A         D
I won't right my wrongs, I'm guilty
 G                      A         D
Lord, have mercy, please forgive me
 G                      A         D
Mama, please don't you cry, I'm sorry


 [Verse 1]
 G                      A           D
One hundred and forty-five days, I'm counting
 G                      A         D
Tryna hold on but the time goes slowly
 G                      A         D
Two hundred and twenty-five ice-cold showers
 G                      A         D
Hurricane hit my cell, ain't get no power
 G                      A         D
Tryna walk a narrow straight path is a battle
 G                      A         D
Kinda hard to walk when you're chained in shackles
 G                      A         D
My soul bleeds through these four walls
 G                      A         D
My heart aches after phone calls


 [Chorus]
 G                      A         D
Mama, please don't you cry, I'm sorry
 G                      A         D
I just caught some time, I'll be home soon
 G                      A         D
It won't be long, I promise
 G                      A         D
I will be okay, just wipe those
 G                      A         D
Tears off of your face, I'm sorry
 G                      A         D
I won't right my wrongs, I'm guilty
 G                      A         D
Lord, have mercy, please forgive me
 G                      A         D
Mama, please don't you cry, I'm sorry


 [Verse 2]
C                                      D
Give you my heart that's filled with pain
C              D
Give me my freedom
                  C                     D
Take off these shackles, they hurt my hands
C                       D
Let me go home
                 C                       D
Cold shower, cold bath, cold food, cold slab
                    C                D
Only makes a cold heart
                    C                    D
Cold shower, cold slab, cold food, cold bath

Only makes a cold

Mama, please don't you cry, I'm sorry
C                        D            Bm

C                        D            Bm

C                        D            Bm
I will be okay, just wipe those
C                        D            Bm
Tears off of your face, I'm sorry

Lord, have mercy, please forgive me
C                        D            Bm
Mama, please don't you cry, I'm sorry
C                        D            Bm
Mama, please don't you cry, I'm sorry


 [Outro]
C                                         D
Barbed wire, best friend became the barbed wire (barbed wire)

Chains broken by the barbed wire (barbed wire)
C                                  D
Tears dropping from the barbed wire (barbed wire, falling down, barbed wire)
                  C                          D
Cold shower, cold slab, cold food, cold bath (yeah, falling down)
                     G
Only makes a cold heart
