[Verse 1]

A
Give me that line again
                           F#m   Dbm
He's not coming home again tonight
                  Bm
Momma wipe those tears from your cheeks
         B       A
It don't make no difference now
                                       E    Dbm
Remind me one last time that you won't ever go
B    Bm
Ohhhhh the whales can't swim without the tide
                                             Em E
And birds can't fly without the stars in the sky

[Chorus]

A                           F#m
Oh and I can't feel without your touch
                           Bm
I can't dream without your smile
                                A  Dbm
I can't live without your love (Oh Momma)
D  A                          F#m
No I cannot fall without your hand
                         Bm
I can't cry without your arms
                          Dm    D  E
I can't live without your love (Oh Momma)

[Verse 2]

A
Give me that song again
               Dbm  A            Bm
Hold me closer than you ever did before
                                  Bm
When I've given all I'll give you more
                              E
We'll keep on floating to the shore
A                                    Dbm    E                 
      Dbm
You can take a storm and turn it all around and then the sun shines through
A      B              Bm
Oh the story of your life
                  Bm
We have all been designed
                             E
But you're as real on the outside, Momma

[Chorus]

A                                 F#m
Oh well I can't feel without your touch
        Dbm      Bm
I can't dream without your smile
                          Dm     Dbm
I can't live without your love (Oh Momma)
A                              F#m
No I cannot fall without your hand
                         Bm
I can't cry without your arms
                          Dm     E       Am  A
I can't live without your love (Oh Momma)

[Bridge]
Bm                         D
See when it all comes back around
                   E      F#m                    A   Bm
And he still can't figure out how he let you get away
E                       D  Dm
You just keep your head up high
    Bm        A
And know it's better off that way
E             Dm   E          A
And know it's better off that way

[Chorus]
