When Mama Sang  
Recorded by George Jones
Written by Bob Warren and Danny Walls

 G           C            G 
Mama didn't have special trainin'
                                     D7 
She couldn't read the music just the words
    G                    C              G 
But when she'd stand to sing on Sunday mornin'
                             D7                   G 
She had the sweetest voice I think I've I've ever heard

                      C               G 
She loved to sing the songs about our Savior
                                     D7 
There Is A Fountain was her favorite one
    G                    C                  G 
And I've seen tears roll down the cheeks of sinners
               D7              G 
By the time my mama's song was done

                   C                 G 
When mama sang the angels stopped to listen
                                            D7 
You could see the love light shinin' in her face
     G             C                 G 
When mama sang the angels stopped to listen
                          D7            G 
Now in heaven's choir she has a special place

            C                         G 
You know my daddy wanted me to sing a song
 
The day that mama left us and you know that little church

                              D7 
Was filled with all of mama's friends
 G               C                            G 
And you know it seems we could all hear mama singin'
                       D7               G 
When I couldn't finish up her favorite hymn

Repeat #3
