Mama's Table Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][C][D][G][C][D]

[Verse 1]
We'd pull [D]a chair
[G]up every night
And eat and talk [C]and joke and fight
[G]Us kid[D]s learned wrong from right
At mama's [G]table[D]

[Verse 2]
With just some [D]hick[G]ory
wood and screws
It's where my [C]daddy read the news
You didn't [D]put your dirty shoes
On mama's [G]table[C]
[D]It was the centre

[Verse 3]
[G]of the best
times I re[C]member
Sometimes the [D]only thing that
brought us all to[G]gether[C]
[D]Grandma pas[G]sed it down when
[Am]I wa[G]s in a cra[C]dle[Am]
It's in my kit[D]chen now but it's still
my mama's [G]table

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][C][D][G]
[D]

[Verse 4]
It's where my [G]brother
and I played games
I just [C]knew he'd gone insane
[D]The day he carved his name
In mama's [G]table[D]

[Verse 5]
And when we [G]got down on our luck
[C]It seemed like it held us [G]up
[C]You could [D]always feel the love
In mama's [G]table[C]
[D]It was the centre

[Verse 6]
[G]of the best
times I re[C]member
Sometimes the [D]only thing that
brought us all to[G]gether[C]
[D]Grandma pas[G]sed it down when
[Am]I wa[G]s in a cra[C]dle[Am]
It's in my [D]kitchen now but it's
still my mama's [G]table[D]
[C]It's got[D] some

[Verse 7]
[G]faded spots
[G]and cracks
And a [C]couple of burns
from candle wax
There's [D]a memory in each scratch
On mama's [G]table
