Mama You Been On My Mind

[Verse 1]
G   C                                      E
 Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
    Am                D7/F#
And covering the crossroads I'm standing at
   C                         G              C
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
    G              G6 G7     C
But mama, you been on my mind

[Verse 2]
G       C                                 E
 I don't mean trouble please don't put me down or get upset
         Am
I am not pleading,
   D7/F#
or saying I can't forget you
  C               E            Am       C/G
I do not pace the floor, bowed down and bent,
    F
but yet
C                G6 G7     C
Mama, you been on   my mind

[Verse 3]
C
 Even though my eyes are hazy
And my thoughts they might be narrow
              E             Am
Where you been don't bother me
   D7/F#
Or bring me down with sorrow
  C              G              Am     C/G       F
I don't even mind who you'll be waking with tomorrow
C                 G6 G7     C
Mama, you're just on my mind

[Verse 4]
C                                                      E
 I'm not asking you to say words like yes or no Please,
  Am
understand me,
      D7/F#
I have     no place I'm calling you to go
         C               G               Am
I'm just whispering to myself so I can't pretend that I
C/G   F
don't know
C            G6 G7     C G
Mama, you're on my mind

  When you wake up in the morning, baby,
look inside your mirror
        E
You know I won't be next to you,
        Am               D7/F#
you know  I won't be near
            C              E           Am          C/G
