Mama, by Annuals
Be He Me, 2006


Tuned 1/2 step down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb eb). All chords and tabs relative to tuning.

VERSE 1:
       E                   A
Well, I promise there's no truth 
        F#m                                A
in that lovely, wooden home you spent your youth.
 E                     A 
I promise that I won't leave
           F#m                      A
before you dress my arms back up in sleeves, Mama, oh Mama.

BRIDGE:
F#m                  A
Where's the trust in running?
     F#m                 A        G#m G A
Baby cool your head, I'm coming.

CHORUS:
A F#m A

VERSE 2:
    E               A
I've hunted down my past, 
        F#m                           A
held it close to the earth. I made it last.
       E                      A
But now solace still keeps my head, 
             F#m                                 A
just knowing all that's said, and done is simply dead, Father, oh Father.

BRIDGE:
   F#m                    A
My thoughts they all come drumming.
F#m                     A
Telling me to just keep humming, Mama, oh Mama.
F#m                  A
Where's the trust in running?
     F#m                 A        G#m G End on: E
Baby cool your head, I'm coming.
