[Intro 1]
[A][G][A][G][A][Em][G][Bb][Gm][Bb]
[Bdim][F][C][Em]

[Verse 1]
Came up from the country with [Dm]a smile for everyone
She [Em]left her blue horizon
just [Dm]to find another home
A [Em]lonely girl who'd travelled many [Dm]days
A [Em]lonely heart that could not find [Dm]a way
And [F]she said,

[Verse 2]
[Em]"Momma,
it's a [Dm]hard life now you're gone"
[Em]Momma, it's so [Dm]hard to carry on
And [Em]I feel I'm a foo[Dm]l who lost it all
You [Bdim]used to make it all so very cl[A]ear
That [G]life must go on though
the end is [Am]near
[Em]Momma, it's a [Dm]sad and lonely life
[C]

[Verse 3]
A [Em]misty morning rider,
she came [Dm]wandering through the hills
A [Em]wandering soul appearing
over [Dm]rainy window sills
A [Em]loser in her heart, but in her [Dm]face
A [Em]smile for everyone under
[Dm]God's grace

[Verse 4]
She said, [Em]"Momma,
it's a [Dm]hard life now you're gone"
[Em]Momma, it's so [Dm]hard to carry on
[Em]And I feel I'm [Dm]a fool who lost it all
You [Bdim]used to [Fdim]make
[Bdim]it all so very c[A]lear
That [G]life must go on though the end [Am]is near
[C]Oh, [Em]Momma, it's a sa[Dm]d and lonely life

it's a [Dm]hard life now you're [F]gone"
[Em]Momma, it's so [Dm]hard to carry on

You [Bdim]used to make it all so very cl[A]ear

[Verse 6]
[Em]Midnight maiden madness,
what to [Dm]search for in this place
[Em]Gateway to the city,
night sky [Dm]shadows on her face
A [Em]lady lost in nowhere but her [Dm]stare
[Em]Leaves the world,
her life to start [Dm]somewhere
And [F]she said,

[Verse 7]
[Em]"Momma,
it's a [Dm]hard life now you're gone"
[Em]Momma, it's so [Dm]hard to carry on
[Em]And I feel I'm a [Dm]fool who lost it all
You [Bdim]used to make it all so very cl[A]ear
That [G]life must go on though
the end [Am]is near[C]

[Verse 8]
[Em]Momma, it's a [Dm]hard life
now you're gone
[Em]Momma, it's so [Dm]hard to carry on
[Em]And I feel I'm a [Dm]fool [F]who lost it [Dm]all
You [Bdim]used to make it all so very cl[A]ear
That [G]life must go on though the end is near
