Mockingbird Chords

[Intro]
A G Am G F G Am G Am G
 
[verse one]
Am              G      Am             G
Hush, you little baby, don't you say a word
Am    G                F                     G
Here comes the devil, all dressed up like a mockingbird
    Am       G                         A        G
And if that mockingbird should try to steal you off the ground
                                 F       G    Am    G
Mama's gonna grab on tight and hold you down, down, down
 
[verse two]
Am     G
Mama, can you tell me, where did my money go?
     Am       G             F             G
What did the devil sell me? I don't even know
Am                          G    Am         G
He's been pecking in my pockets, diving round my door
Am         G                      F           G
Trying to take me with him- what does he want me for?
 
[Chorus]
Am    G       F G
Mama told me,
Am     G        F    G
don't let go the ground
Am   G        F      G
Somebody hold me, yeah
Am   G       F
hold me down
Em    Am G
Down
 
[verse three]
          Am         G                      Am          G
I got the devil on my shoulder- hollering- beating his red wing
         Am    G                     F               G
Saying "polly wanna dollar, I don't care if you can sing"
      Am        G                         Am        G
And "put down that guitar, now, darlin', you can't really play it
       Am              G           F                     G
Don't matter what you got to say- you don't know how to say it"
 
[Chorus]
Am    G       F G
Mama told me,
Am     G        F    G
don't let go the ground
Am   G        F      G
Somebody hold me, yeah
Am   G       F
hold me down

F                   Dm                  C          A#
What's this coming? what's this coming? coming over me
Am            F       Dm               C            A#  C
I can't stand myself, I can't even stand on my own feet
 
[Chorus]
Am    G       F G
Mama told me,
Am     G        F    G
don't let go the ground
Am   G        F      G
Somebody hold me, yeah

hold me down

Down
