Elliott Smith - Wouldnt mama be proud

^Gmthe question ^Cis^D# wouldn't mama be ^A#proud' there's a silver lining in the corporate cloud and the pretty post that you're taking as as an NCO [Bridge:] ^Cof the great pre^D#tender i should sure think ^Gmso [Chorus:] wouldn't ^A#mama be ^Cpro^D#ud'

^Gm"can I take ^Cyour o^D#rder'" asks the^A# heavenly host ticket to the jetstream blowing coast to coast the long stem glasses, a movie and a pleasant dream in mid air [Bridge:] ^C"you gotta tell me q^D#uickly 'cos we're almost ^Gmthere" [Chorus:] wouldn't ^A#mama be p^Crou^D#d'

^D#pointed out of the ^Dwindow ^A#at the sky gone ^Cblack ^D#"kid you're on the r^Dight track"

^Gmif i send you ^Cpostcards^D# from the side of the ^A#road photographs of moving parts about to implode if i crawl to keep it together like you say you know i can do [Bridge:] ^Cto transmit a momen^D#t from me to ^Gmyou [Chorus:] wouldn't ^A#mama be p^Crou^D#d' ^Gm wouldn't mama be proud' wouldn't mama be proud' wouldn't mama be proud'
