Mama Tabulatur von Rudy Mancuso (für Baryton)

Bm
She said "I never want to leave you but I gotta go"
              G                              A
And then she left me for a reason that I'll never know
              D
But I don't mind
               F#
I'm feeling fine
        Bm                               
My mama told me all the things that I already know
            G                                   A
Sometimes I feel it in my bones just like an animal
             D
She's on my mind
                    F#
I guess I'm not alright

But...
G                                    Bm
I've been through this shit so many times
              G
And I can't deny
                        D
I'll give you one more try
      G                                 Bm                              
I'm hoping things go differently this time
                      C
'Cause she could be right
                F#
She could be right
Bm                    Em
Mama told me "Play it cool"
A                           D
But I can't help if I'm a fool         G
                            Em
And in my mind there's only you
A                               F#
'Cause happy endings I can't choose
                      Bm
I guess I'll play it cool

Bm G A D F#

She said you're going way too fast, you gotta take it slow
This love is like a plant, we gotta let it grow
And I said "Why?"
"Sounds like a waste of time"
I'm getting tired of tryna be what you want me to be
But mama told me that I can't keep playing hide and seek
She's on my mind
I'm not gonna lie
But...
I've been through this shit so many times
And I can't deny
I'll give you one more try
I'm hoping things go differently this time
'Cause she could be right
She could be right
Mama told me "Play it cool"
But I can't help if I'm a fool
And in my mind there's only you
'Cause happy endings I can't choose
I guess I'll play it cool
I call the same old things so many times
Some things in life
You just can't rewind
Things don't seem to change although I try
And I know why
And I know why
