Capo 2nd D G
GI was left alone, A long, long time ago CBy my mother who I never got to Dknow Faded Cmemories of my life Have been Gwashed in whiskey nCights And Iâ?D?™m living at the bottom ofG the botCtlGe
GI’ve spent my life on a bar stool all alone Never Cknowing why she sent me from my Dhome Was there Csomething wrong with me? ThatG no one else could Csee What’Ds the reason only I got tuGrned awCayG
[Chorus]
Mama Dplease tell me why You would Cleave just me behiGnd You sent me off and then you went and had my bDrother Before Cme, a little girl And theyâ€?G?re the centre of Cyour world MamaG tell me why’Dd you leave the miGddle child?
C G D G
GI should’ve gone back home and ask her to her face CBut my life’s become too much Dof a disgrace And I Cgot the news today sayingG mama passed Caway DSo I’ll never know the reasonG I’m alone
[Chorus]
Mama Dplease tell me why You would Cleave just me behiGnd You sent me off and then you went and had my bDrother Before Cme, a little girl And theyâ€?G?re the centre of Cyour world MamaG tell me why’Dd you leave the miGddle chCild? Mama tell mGe why’Dd you leave the miCddle cGhiDldG?
