[Intro]
C F C F
 
[Verse]
C                          F
His mamma she cried, as she opened the door.
C                                 F
She felt unprepared though she'd been thre before.
            Dm7                F
Its all he ever wanted to do. Him and his daddy too.
C                                      G
He said dry your eyes now coz I'll be back very soon.
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm7                         F
He made his journey to the place up on the hill.
Dm7                          F                    G
Sat by the gravestone & it felt like time stood still.
 
[Chorus]
C                      F                C
As much as I miss you, here at my door, your mamma she needs you,
      F                                      Dm7
each time it hurts a little more. You know I made my mistakes,
                                F
and if you do the same, it'll break her heart all over again coz,
C                             G                                   C         F
as much as I miss you, your mamma, your mama needs you a little more.
                               C         F
Your mama needs you a little more
 
[Verse 2]
C                             F
She turned dow his collar and straightened his tie
C                             G
She smiled at her boy, as she waved him goodbye
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm7                           F
In the midst of the battle he dropped to his knees.
Dm7                            F              G
And his papa's words were just ringing in his ears
 
[Chorus]
C                      F                C
As much as I miss you, here at my door, your mamma she needs you,
      F                                      Dm7
each time it hurts a little more. You know I made my mistakes,
                                F
and if you do the same, it'll break her heart all over again coz,
C                             G                                   C         F
as much as I miss you, your mamma, your mama needs you a little more.
 
[Bridge]
Am                 F
She hoped the flag, locked in the drawer,
C                                           G
would never be draped in her arms, like it was once before
 
[End Chorus] [SINGLE STRUM FOR FIRST 4 CHORDS]
C                     F                       C
As much as I miss you, coming through my door, my mamma she needs me,
F                                              Dm7
each time it hurts a little more. I've learnt from your mistakes,
                              F
and I won't do the same, it'll break her heart all over again coz,
C                        G                             C          F
as much as I miss you, oh mamma, oh mamma i'm coming home.
                      C         F
Oh mamma I'm coming home
                      C
Oh mamma I'm coming home
