[B]
First thing [F#] I remember
[G#m] was [E] asking Papa [Em] why, [B] for there were [G] many things I [B] didn't know.
And Daddy [F#] always smiled, [G#m] took me by [E] the hand, [B] saying someday [F#]
you'll [B] understand.
[F#] Well I'm here to pray now, you've [B] seen every mother's thoughts, [F#] you've got a longing for
us, [B] you've got a longing for y'all, [C#m] but someday [E] it'll never [B] come.
The time and tears [F#] went by,
[G#m] and I [Em] collected dust, [B] for there were [G] many things [B] I didn't know.
When Daddy [F#] went away, [G#m] he said try [E] to be a man, [B] and someday [F#]
you'll [B] understand.
Well [F#] I'm here to pray [B] now, you've seen every mother's thoughts, [F#] you've got a longing for
us, [B] you've got a longing for y [C#m]'all, but someday [E]
it'll [B] never come.
Then one [F#] day in April,
[G#m] I [Em] wasn't even there, [B] for there were [G] many things I [B] didn't know.
That son [F#] was born to me, [G#m] Mama [E] held his hand, [B] saying someday [F#]
you'll [B] understand.
[E]
[B] [F#] Well I'm here to pray now, [B] you've seen every mother's thoughts, [F#] you've got a longing for us,
[B] you've got a longing [C#m] for y'all, but someday [E]
it'll [B] never come.
[C#m] Someday [E]
it'll never [B] come.
[G]
[C] Thank you, on [G] September
[A] the year I [Fm] went away, [C] for there were [G#] many things [C] I didn't know.
And I still [G] see him standing, [Am] trying to [F] be a man, I [C] said someday [G]
you'll [C] understand.
[G] Well I'm here to pray now, [C] you've seen every mother's thoughts, [G] you've got a longing for us,
[C] you've got a longing for y'all, [Dm] but someday [F] it'll never [C] come.
[Dm] Oh someday [F] it'll never [C] come.
