C#mMama, she has taught me well
BTold me when I was G#myoung
Son, your life´s an open book
Don´t close it before it´s done
The brightest flame burns quickest,
That´s what I heard her say,
A son´s heart´s owed to mother
But I must find my way

®:
C#mLet B my G#m heart F# go
Let your son grow
Mama let my heart go
OrC#m letB thisA heartF# be G# still

Rebel mind your last name
Wild blood in my veins
They bring string around my neck
They mark that still remains
Left home at and early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what it said is done

®:

®1: C#mNever I askedF# you
ButB never I Egave
But you gave me your emptiness
That I´ll take to my grave
Never I ask of you
But never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
SoC#m letB thisA heartF# be G# still

Mama now I´m coming home
I´m not all you wished of me
But a mother´s love for her son
Spoken help me be…
I took your love for granted
And all the things you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But a cold stone´s all I see
