Truckstop Honeymoon - Mama Cried
Album: Delivery Boy, Track 7
Tabbed by: Danny Halstead
F C
Mama cried when Frank Sinatra died
Dm
She wept for days, when old blue eyes passed away
F D
was like a death in the family, she only had one LP
G F
and she played it constantly, and it drove us all insane
C G
when Mama sang along to all them tin pan alley songs
Dm
and she'd get the words all wrong
F D
and it didn't really matter, it made it sorta sadder
G
it's such a shame.
F C
How Mama cried when Frank Sinatra died
G
As good a reason as any other
Dm
It's as if they had been lovers
F D
A long long time ago, but as far as I know
G
She never caught a show
F C
But all the same, her tears they were real
G
and her grief was sincere
Dm
and it came from a deep place
F D G
Beyond reason, beyond lyin' with our name
F C
Yeah Mama cried like I never saw
G Dm
"Mama cried before," "That's not exactly true ..
F D
She cried a lot for you and Richard Burton too".
G
It was all she could do
F C
To ease the pain, she smoked cigarettes in bed
G Dm
Drank Kahlua as she read, everything the papers said
F D
she believed every word, now it seems sort of absurd
G F
How Mama cried when Frank Sinatra died
F C
And her tears they were real
G
and her grief was sincere
Dm
and it came from a deep place
F D G
Beyond reason, beyond lyin' with our name
F C
Yeah Mama cried when Frank Sinatra died
