Intro:

C | C | F | D7 C | C 
C | C | F | D7 C | F C | F | G7

C                                      E
Perhaps it's the colour of the sun cut flat
    Am           D7
And cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at
   C              E          Am             F
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
    C              G6    C
But mama, you been on my mind

I  mean no trouble, please don't put me down, don’t get upset
I am not pleadin' or sayin', I can't forget you
I do not pace the floor bowed down an’ bent, but yet
Mama, you been on my mind

Even though my eyes are hazy an' my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow
It don't even mind to me who you're be wakin' with tomorrow
But mama, you just on my mind

I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no
Please understand me, I have no place I’m calling you to go
I'm just whispering to myself, so I can’t pretend that I don't know
Mama, you just on my mind

Solo over couplet

When you wake up in the mornin' baby, take a look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on his mind
