( G , E )
Young bones groan 
And the rocks below say : 
"Throw your skinny body down, son !"
          A                         C   D
But I'm going to meet the one I love 

( G , E )
So please don't stand in my way 
             A                           C   D
Because I'm going to meet the one I love 
G   C        D
No, Mamma, let me go ! 

( G , E )
Young bones groan 
And the rocks below say : 
"Throw your white body down !"
           A                        C  D
But I'm going to meet the one I love 
( G , E )
At last ! At last ! At last ! 
          A                      C   D
I'm going to meet the one I love

I thought that if you had
             A  
An acoustic guitar
   C             D
Then it meant that you were 
( G , E )
A Protest Singer 
             A
Oh, I can smile about it now
              C           D 
But at the time it was terrible 

G    C         D
No, Mamma, let me go
