Mama's Waiting chords

As I drive towards [Db] home, my picture [Ab] mama waiting
She'll be glad to see her big time [Eb] boy come home
She [Ab] gets little in return for [Db] all she's given
And [Ab] I'm all she's [Eb] got to love since
[Db] daddy's gone
[Ab]
Now I'm forty [Db] miles away and [Ab] I'm still wondering
Why I ever told her I was [Eb] doing well
[Eb] [Ab] When I first went wrong I should have [Db] turned to mama
But [Ab] it's hard to get [Eb] back up once you [Db] have failed
[Ab]
[Db] It's the last time I'll [Eb] see flowers [Ab] in the morning
[Db] It's the last time I'll [Eb] hear robins [Ab] in the spring
[Db] It's the last time I'll [Eb] feel mama's [Ab] arms around me, [Fm] oh lord
[Db] It's the last chance here [Eb] on earth I'll [Db] have to say
[Ab]
As I drive away [Db] behind me [Ab] mama's waving
To a son who's all she'd ever hoped [Eb] he'd be
[Ab] Now she'll say her final prayers, [Db] go meet daddy
And [Ab] I'm glad she's [Eb] only seeing one [Db] side of me
[Ab] Today makes fifteen years [Db] in Stoney Mountain [Ab] Prison
And tonight I'll walk my last few [Eb] steps alone
But
[Ab] I can't help thinking somewhere
[Db] mama's waiting
[Ab] Once again to see her [Eb] big time boy [Db] come home
[Ab]
[Db] It's the last time I'll [Eb] see flowers in [Ab] the morning
[Db] It's the last time I'll [Eb] hear robins in [Ab] the spring
It's [Db] the last time I'll [Eb] feel mama's arms [Ab] around me, [Fm] oh lord
It's [Db] the last chance here [Eb] on earth I'll have [Db] to [Bb] say
It's [Db] the last chance here on [Eb] earth I'll have [Db] to say
[Ab]
