🗣️ Verse 1
Chords: Emaj7 – G#m7 – Amaj7 – F#m7 – B7
[Emaj7] Mama stayed in school, [G#m7] but life was hard to face
[Amaj7] Raised her younger siblings, [F#m7] held a quiet grace
[B7] Clothes were passed from others, [Emaj7] never bought her own
[G#m7] She learned to hide her hunger, [Amaj7] always stood alone
[F#m7] Others had more, she had less
[B7] Still she wore her kindness best
🌉 Bridge 1
Chords: C#m7 – Amaj7 – G#m7 – F#m7 – B7
[C#m7] Then came work in a factory hall
[Amaj7] Clocked in overtime, still barely got it all
[G#m7] Every pay, [F#m7] just slipped away
[B7] Problems came and chose to stay

🎶 Chorus
Chords: Amaj7 – Emaj7 – C#m7 – F#m7 – B7
[Amaj7] She held the world with quiet hands
[Emaj7] Gave us life, without demands
[C#m7] Raised three kids on hope and scraps
[F#m7] Never stopped to rest or nap
[B7] Oh Mama, your fight was real
[Amaj7] And I know just how you feel
[Emaj7] I see your pain, I see your grace
[F#m7] I’ll take your weight, I’ll take your place
[B7] I’ll stand for you in every space

🗣️ Verse 2
Chords: Emaj7 – G#m7 – Amaj7 – F#m7 – B7
[Emaj7] Rain through the roof, [G#m7] cold on the floor
[Amaj7] She smiled through struggle, [F#m7] gave even more
[B7] Skipped her food so we could eat
[Emaj7] Worn-out shoes on tired feet
[G#m7] Never asked for anything
[Amaj7] Still gave us everything
[F#m7] I’m grown now and I can see
[B7] All she did was fight for me
🌉 Bridge 2
Chords: C#m7 – Amaj7 – G#m7 – F#m7 – B7
[C#m7] She kept her dreams behind her eyes
[Amaj7] For her kids, she sacrificed
[G#m7] She never said, [F#m7] “This isn’t fair”
[B7] Just bowed her head and offered care
