Mama, I understand your many sleepless nights
G#
When you're seat and you think about father
D#Fm7C#
Or how you tried to be the perfect wife
G#D#
You used to dress and fix your hair
Fm7C#
Then you smiled through your tears
G#D#
In the mirror you would stare
Fm7
And say a prayer, like:
C#G#
I wish he said "I'm beautiful"
D#
I wish it didn't hurt at all
Fm7
I don't know how I got here
C#
I was once the one who had his heart
G#
Until you had enough then you took that ring off
D#
You took that ring off
Fm7
So tired of the lies and trying, fighting, crying
C#
Took that ring off
G#
Oh, now the fun begins
D#
Dust yourself off and you love again
Fm7
You found a new man now you shine and you're fine
C#
Like it's my time, you took that ring off
G#D#Fm7
Mama (so sexy), you live and learn, that's just the way life goes
C#
(you're a killer, you're a killer)
G#
Always know that you've got a daughter
D#Fm7
That's so so proud you took the high road
C#
You're so sexy
G#D#
You used to dress and fix your hair
Fm7C#
Then you smiled through your tears
G#D#
In the mirror you would stare
Fm7
And say a prayer, like:
C#G#
I wish he said "I'm beautiful"
D#
I wish it didn't hurt at all
Fm7
I don't know how I got here
C#
I was once the one who had his heart
G#
Until you had enough then you took that ring off
D#
You took that ring off
Fm7

G#
Oh, now the fun begins
D#
Dust yourself off and you love again
Fm7
You found a new man now you shine and you're fine
C#
Like it's my time, you took that ring off
G#
After all your tears
D#
After all that pain's all clear
Fm7
Mama, after all them years
C#
We can start all over again
G#
Mama, and now it all makes sense
D#
Letting go is never the end
Fm7
Mama, we can love again
C#
This is where freedom begins
G#
Mama, so put your love on top
D#
You gon' shine and put your love on top
Fm7
It's your time to put your love on top
C#

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