When I was a child, mama�d hold me
F C
In her lovin� arms when the storm clouds come along
C
Dark clouds rising, storms a ragin
G C
She would sing an old gospel song
C
With the thunder crashing and lightning, flashing
F C
I found comfort in the words that she would sing
C
Beyond these dark skies there�s a rainbow
G C
That only love and the sun�ll bring
When she sang Amazing Grace
I felt tears in my eyes
When she sang Circle Be Unbroken
Lord, I knew there�s bluer skies
Time rolled on, the circle was broken
Mama went on to somewhere beyond the blue
I started ramblin� that lost highway
And hard livin� took away the little child she knew
Yeah, I started drinkin� and I started gamblin�
I had no one to look over me
There was no blue skies, only sorrow
I could only hear her sing in my memory
I was runnin� with a wild bunch
Hanging with the rough and the rowdy kind
I was livin fast, and I was dying young
So alone, Lord I had a worried mind
I was drunk and I was hurtin�
Somewhere on the streets in New Orleans
When I stumbled into a little shelter
I saw an angel with a tambourine
