E            Abm7                    F#m7          E
Momma please don't go won't you stay here for one more day
                        Abm7 
I've been you boy for so long now
                F#m7           E
There's so much I, I still have to say
          Abm7                    F#m7
Sky rips open and I held my heart in my hand
          E
Like a soldier on his very last day
                Abm7
Cried myself to sleep at night
         F#m7                   E
And I listened as I heard the angels sing sha la la

Chorus
E         B             D                A
Sha la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home
E         B            D                A
Sha la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home        

    E                            Abm7
Oh, something inside of me makes me scream
    F#m7                          E
Oh, how could God take you from a little boy
                            Abm7
He'll be all right he is by my side
              F#m7                 E
He's not a little boy, he's my pride and joy sha la la la

Summer on the radio and the phone rings and it was Jeannette 
                      Abm7                F#m7   E
Sayin?, boy we had to let her go I begged no, no not yet
E                        Abm7
You left six of us to fend for ourselves
F#m7                                  E
Guess it's just part of someone's master plan
                                 Abm7
We'll see you laughing you?re my best friend
             F#m7
You were a lion and the lamb
           E
And I cried as the angels sang sha la la la
