Mama, I understand your many sleepless nights
C#
When you're seat and you think about father
G#A#m7F#
Or how you tried to be the perfect wife
C#G#
You used to dress and fix your hair
A#m7F#
Then you smiled through your tears
C#G#
In the mirror you would stare
A#m7
And say a prayer, like:
F#C#
I wish he said "I'm beautiful"
G#
I wish it didn't hurt at all
A#m7
I don't know how I got here
F#
I was once the one who had his heart
C#
Until you had enough then you took that ring off
G#
You took that ring off
A#m7
So tired of the lies and trying, fighting, crying
F#
Took that ring off
C#
Oh, now the fun begins
G#
Dust yourself off and you love again
A#m7
You found a new man now you shine and you're fine
F#
Like it's my time, you took that ring off
C#G#A#m7
Mama (so sexy), you live and learn, that's just the way life goes
F#
(you're a killer, you're a killer)
C#
Always know that you've got a daughter
G#A#m7
That's so so proud you took the high road
F#
You're so sexy
C#G#
You used to dress and fix your hair
A#m7F#
Then you smiled through your tears
C#G#
In the mirror you would stare
A#m7
And say a prayer, like:
F#C#
I wish he said "I'm beautiful"
G#
I wish it didn't hurt at all
A#m7
I don't know how I got here
F#
I was once the one who had his heart
C#
Until you had enough then you took that ring off
G#
You took that ring off
A#m7
So tired of the lies and trying, fighting, crying
F#
Took that ring off
C#
Oh, now the fun begins
G#
Dust yourself off and you love again
A#m7
You found a new man now you shine and you're fine
F#
Like it's my time, you took that ring off
C#
After all your tears
G#
After all that pain's all clear
A#m7
Mama, after all them years
F#
We can start all over again
C#
Mama, and now it all makes sense
G#
Letting go is never the end
A#m7
Mama, we can love again
F#
This is where freedom begins
C#
Mama, so put your love on top
G#
You gon' shine and put your love on top
A#m7
It's your time to put your love on top
F#
Everybody put your love on top
C#
Aye, love on top
G#
Aye, love on top
A#m7
It's your time to put your love on top
F#
Girl you so fine, put your love on top

You're not gonna get stuck there, you're not gonna die
You're gonna survive"
