(VERSE)
It was k[C]inda hard believing
Mama St[F]ewart couldn't see me then
Or [C]even that her age was ninety-f[G]our
'Cause the ye[C]ars that took her sight away
Had g[F]iven her the right to say
What s[D7]he believed, and she did, praise the L[G]ord
And the th[C]ings she said reminded me
Of th[F]ings I'd grown too blind to see
And f[C]eelings that I'd hidden deep ins[F]ide
And when she said goodbye and kissed me I was th[C]ankful
She couldn't see the sudden t[G]ears I couldn't h[C]ide
(CHORUS)
[F]Everything is beautiful in M[C]ama Stewart's eyes
[G]Another shining reason to beli[C]eve
[F]Everything is new and full of w[C]onder and surprise
Ins[G]ide the world that Mama Stewart s[C]ees
(VERSE)
She r[C]ode the covered wagons west
When s[F]he was only seven
But she c[C]ame to California on a pl[G]ane
She said at n[C]inety-four she thought for sure
She'd g[F]ot too close to heaven
And l[D7]ike as not was going all the w[G]ay
But the m[C]iracle of medicine
And g[F]ood old time religion
Rem[C]oved the veil of darkness from her e[F]yes
They say she praised the Lord and thanked the d[C]octor
And didn't even s[G]eem at all surpr[C]ised
(CHORUS)
[F]Everything is beautiful in M[C]ama Stewart's eyes
[G]Another shining reason to beli[C]eve
And [F]everything is new and full of w[C]onder and surprise
Ins[G]ide the world that Mama Stewart s[C]ees
Lord, l[G]et me see what Mama Stewart s[C]ees
