Mama Tried
Merle Haggard
[D] [G] [D] [G]
First thing I remember knowin' was a lonesome whistle blowin'
[D] [G] [A7]
And a young-on's dream of growing up to ride
[D] [G] [D] [G]
On a freight train leaving town, not knowing where I'm bound
[D] [A7] [D]
And no one could change my mind, but Mama tried
One and only rebel child, from a family meek and mild
Mama seemed to know what lay in store
'Spite of all my Sunday learnin', toward the bad I kept on turnin'
'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore
Chorus
[D] [G] [D]
And I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole
[G] [D] [A7]
No one could steer me right, but Mama tried, Mama tried
[D] [G] [D]
Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading I denied,
A7 D
that leaves only me to blame, 'cause Mama tried
Dear old Daddy rest his soul, he left my mom a heavy load
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes
Working hours without rest, she wanted me to have the best
She tried to raise me right, but I refused
Chorus
