Dolly Parton - The sweetest gift

^AOne day a mother went to a prison To see an ^E7erring but precious s^Aon ^AShe told the warden how much she loved him It did not ^E7matter what he had ^Adone

^AShe did not bring to him a parole or pardon She brought no ^E7silver, no pomp or ^Astyle It was a halo bright sent down from ^Dheaven's light The sweetest ^Agift, ^E7a mother's ^Asmile

She's gone to ^E7Heaven from heartaches ^Afree Those walls around you could never change her You were her^E7 baby and e'er will ^Abe

^AShe did not bring to him a parole or pardon She brought no ^E7silver, no pomp or ^Astyle It was a halo bright sent down from ^Dheaven's light The sweetest ^Agift, ^E7a mother's ^Asmile
