D Going back to a tender age, A/C# So full of confusion and rage, C G Daddy says, Boys, your Mama's gone. D There's a hand on your shoulder as you're throwing dirt, A/C# Someone says, Time heals the hurt. C G Little man, you got to keep on keepin' on, D A/C# Bm Em D A D But all you want is Mama's arms. You ride back home in a limosine The saddest car that you've ever seen Your brother can not look you in the eye Lightning strikes, thunder roars An early winter in that heart of yours But you swear you won't let them see you cry 'Cause all you want is Mama's arms The neighbors come and bring you pies Endless words and futile sighs And you run up to your room and lock the door And there you are in your Sunday best The way your Mama would have had you dressed And you realize it doesn't matter anymore 'Cause all you want is Mama's arms 'Round and 'round and 'round it goes The seasons change the young boy grows To understand it's all part of some plan You used to wonder what it's all about Now those are questions you can do without You laugh them off and do the best you can All you want is Mama's arms All you want is Mama's arms You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Bm  C  C#  D  Em  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
