Memories of Mother Ralph Stanley
INTRO
[G] [C] [G] [D] [G]
VERSE 1
[G]On a dark stormy night the a[C]ngels called [G]mother
Her love that we [G]shared for such a short [D]while
She called us [G]around and [C]told us she was [G]leaving
Then closing her [G]eyes she [D]went with a [G]smile
CHORUS
[G]Mother that rests in a [C]lonesome old [G]graveyard
On a hill a far [G]away there's stands her white t[D]omb
With the grass covered [G]over it [C]seems so [G]neglected
When the spring seasons [G]comes sweet f[D]lowers will b[G]loom
VERSE 2
I'll never forget the love mother gave us
As children we'd play around our old home
I know her reward is a mansion in heaven
While her children on earth are scattered and gone
(CHORUS)
