Intro:

Dm C Am

*Verse*

Dm

Mama she has taught me well

C Am

Told me when I was young

Dm

Son your life's an open book

C Am

Don't close it before it's done

Dm

The brightest flame burns quickest

C Am

Thats what I heard her say

D

The son's heart's owed to mother

C Am

But I must find my way....

*Chorus*

Dm C Am G

Let my heart go

Dm C Am G

Let your son grow

Dm C Am G

Mama let my heart go

Dm C Bb G Am

Mama let this heart be still.

*Intro again*

*Verse 2*

Dm

Remember my new last name

C Am

Wild blood in my veins

Dm

Draping the strings around my neck

C Am

The mark that still remains

Dm

Left home at an early age

C Am

of what I heard was wrong (?)

Dm

I never asked forgiveness

C Am

For what is said is done....

*Chorus*

Dm C Am G

Let my heart go

Dm C Am G

Let your son grow

Dm C Am G

Mama let my heart go

Dm C Bb G Am

Mama let this heart be still.

*Bridge*

Dm G

Never I asked of you

C F

but never I gave

Dm G

But you gave me your emptiness

C F

that I'll take to my grave

Dm G

Never I asked of you

C F

but never I gave

Dm G

But you gave me your emptiness

C F

that I'll take to my grave

Dm C Bb G Am

So let this heart be still.

*Verse 3*

Dm

Mama now I'm coming home

C Am

I'm not all you wished of me

Dm

A mother's love for her son

C Am

was spoken heavily(?)

Dm

yeah I took your love for granted

C Am

and all the things you said to me

Dm

I need your arms to welcome me

C Am

That cold stone's all I see.....

*Chorus*

Dm C Am G

Let my heart go

Dm C Am G

Let your son grow

Dm C Am G

Mama let my heart go

Dm C Bb G Am

Mama let this heart be still.

Dm C Am Dm

Let my heart go

Dm C Am Dm

Mama let my heart go

Dm C Am Dm

You never let my heart go

Dm C Bb G Am

Mama let this heart be still.

*Bridge*

(solo over Dm G C F twice)

Dm G

Never I asked of you

C F

but never I gave

Dm G

But you gave me your emptiness

C F

that I'll take to my grave

Dm G

Never I asked of you

C F

but never I gave

Dm G

But you gave me your emptiness

C F

that I'll take to my grave

Dm C Bb G Am

So let this heart be still.
