Verse : same picking as intro

C            Am                             Em          G
Oh! my mama, she gave me these feathered breaths 
C            Am                       Em                G
Oh! my mama, she told me, "Use your voice, my little bird!"
C                                 Am          Em        G
She said "sing! sing! sing! sing! sing! sing! melodies"
C                                 Am          Em        G
And she sang! sang! sang! sang! sang! those melodies
C            Am                             Em          G
Oh! my mama, she did give me fancy feet I'll be dancin' on
C                         Am                          Em          G
And I'll tap, tap, tap my toes into those creaking floor boards

C            Am                     Em          G
Oh! My mama she took my little hand and held on tight
C            Am                        Em          G
All the mamas give the waters of their wells!
C            Am                         Em          G
All the mamas give the babies this very dirt we're walking on
C            Am                          Em          G
Oh! My mama, she gave me these feathered breaths 
C               Am                          Em             G
And your mama, she gave you these feathered breaths too

C                                Am
And when the sky drops all those feathers
Em                          G
And when the birds sing in the morning
C
I'll be a mama
Am
I'll have a daughter
Em
I'll be a mama
G
I'll have a daughter
C
And I'll give her melodies
Am
I'll give her melodies
Em
And I'll give her melodies
G
I'll give her melodies
C
And I'll give her melodies
Am
I'll give her melodies
Em
And I'll give her melodies
G
I'll give her melodies
C                        Am  Em   G
And She'll be my little bird
C                 Am
And then she'll fly
Em
she'll fly
G
she'll fly
