Mama You Been On My Mind

(início)

E                                        G#
Perhaps it is the color of the sun cut flat
       C#m            C#m7
And cov´rin´ the crossroad I´m standing at,
   E              G#          C#m           A
Or maybe it´s the weather or something like that,
    E              B         E
But mama, you been on my mind.
E                                                    G#
I mean no trouble, please don´t put down, don´t get upset,
         C#m           C#m7
I am not pleadin´ or sayin´, "I can´t forget you".
  E               G#          C#m                  A
I do not pace the floor bowed down an´ bent, but yet,
      E             B         E
Well, mama you been on my mind.
E
Even though my eyes are hazy an´ my thoughts they might be narrow,
G#                   C#m           C#m7
Where you been don´t bother me, or bring me down with sorrow
E            G#                 C#m               A
I don´t even mind who you´re be wakin´ with tomorrow,
    E             B         E
But mama you been on my mind.
E                                               G#
I´m not askin´ you to say words like "yes" or "no",
            C#m                 C#m7
Please understand me, I have no place I´m calling you to go.
         E             G#                C#m                  A
I´m just whispering to myself so I can´t pretend that I don´t know,
E              B        E
Mama, you just on my mind.
E                                                    G#
When you wake up in the morning´, baby take a look inside the mirror.
C#m                                  C#m7
You know I won´t be next to you, you know I won´t be near.
E          G#              C#m             A
I´d just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear.
   E               B                 E
As someone who has had you on his mind.
