Verse 1.
5 -6  -6  -6  -6 -6 -7   7
I may be your forgotten son
 5   -6 -6   -6  -6  -6-7   7
Who wandered off at twenty one
 7    -7 -7  -7  -7  -7 -7   -7
It`s sad to find my-self at home
-7   7      -10     8  b8-8 7-6
and you     you`re not around
5 -6  -6   -6-6  -6  -7    7
If I could only hold your hand
 5   -6 -6  -6-6  -6 -7  7
and say I`m sorry yes I am
 7   -7   -7   -7-7    -7 -7 -7
I`m sure you`d really understand
-7  7  -10   8  b8 -8 7-6
Oh ma where are you now?
CHORUS
2.
The house we shared up-on the hill
Seems lifeless but is standing still
And mem`ries of my childhood fill    my mind
Oh mammy mammy I`ve been through all the walks
of life
Seen tired days ond lonely nights
And now without you by my side
I`m lost  how will I survive?
CHORUS

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
