Mean Mama Blues(Chords)

	        A 
Well, when I come home this morning,  

It was still too dark to see 

I could tell my baby wasn't sleeping next to me, 
                D 
She's gone and left me 

                            A 
Where to I guess I'll never know 

  E                                                     A 
I only know her leave has brought pain and misery to my soul 

A 
Well, a note was on the pillow, she's gone without a doubt 

                                                 
I tried to read her writing, but I couldn't make it out 
                    
                   D                               A      
'Cause tears were falling too fast for me to even read 

 E                                       A 
Nobody knows my sorrow, nobody knows my misery 

 E 
My friends told me she'd leave me but I said they wasn't right 

                                           
She gave no word of warning, she'd be leaving in the night 

          D                                     A 
Can't understand her, what made my baby want to go? 

  E                                                  A 
I didn't hear her leaving, she didn't even close the door 

 A 
When she'd come home this morning, I'd jump and shout with flee 


She can't mean more to someone else 

                                        D 
Than what she means to me, I love that woman 

                           A 
I got to have her all the time 

   D                                                  A 
I got to have her near me, to ease this misery on my mind
