I Have No Mother Now
Key of G
Open in Bluegrass Book: transpose, play alongVerse
I hear the low winds sweeping Through every bush and tree Where my dear mother’s sleeping Away from home and me
Chorus
Cold in the grave she’s lying And sorrow shapes my brow She’s gone from me to Heaven I have no mother now
Verse
I see the pale moon shining On mother’s white tombstone With roses o’er entwining They’re just like me and her
Chorus
They’re just me a weeping As sorrow shapes my brow She’s gone from me to heaven I have no mother now
Verse
Sad was the hour of parting In a voice so low and sweet She said loved ones I’m dying We must in Heaven meet
Chorus
Oh yes we’ll meet dear mother On that eternal shore And dwell as one in Heaven Where parting comes no more
Chorus
Oh yes we’ll meet dear mother On that eternal shore And dwell as one in Heaven Where parting comes no more
