Tabbed by Ann Hogan
Hello, all.
There were a few errors in the previous submission of this tab, so I posted
my corrected version of it.
In this song, some of the chords are the same, just with different
fingerings, so I marked the different ones with an asterisk ().

Dmaj7 Bm Aadd9 A x2
[Dmaj7]Sweetn[Bm]ess,
[Bm]On the rips of your [Aadd9]old [A]dress.
[Dmaj7]Twilig[Bm]ht
[Bm]Passed the banks of the [Aadd9]warm [A]fire.
[Dmaj7]Whispers in the dark, they hit the trees[Bm]
[Aadd9]And they run in to your heart to find mamas sleeves.[A]
[Dmaj7]Daddy aint awake, and daylights gone.[Bm]
[Aadd9]Afraid of the dark, you think of mamas b[A]ones.
[E7]Cause I cant live like this
E7 A
Because I heard your mama cry.
A Dmaj7 Bm
Behind the door Im listening;
A Dmaj7
She said shes gonna fly.
Dmaj7 E7 Riff
With words your mouth shes kissing.
[E7]And she said, "[Amaj7]Woah, oh, oh, [Dmaj7]child,[Bm]
Dmaj7
Your back is straight;
Dmaj7 E7 Riff
Dont let hurt curve it that way."
E7
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.
Dmaj7 Bm Aadd9 A x2
[Dmaj7]Sweetn[Bm]ess,
[Bm]On the ribs of your [Aadd9]bare [A]chest.
[Dmaj7]Twilig[Bm]ht
[Bm]On the roof of that [Aadd9]snowy [A]night.
[Dmaj7]You ran outside without your boots on.[Bm]
[Aadd9]You could be lost, youd find yourself at home[A]
[Dmaj7]Where mamas house is up on the sunrise.[Bm]
[Aadd9]Sweet good God, just take me by [A]surprise.
[E7]Cause I cant live like this,
E7 A
Because I heard your mama cry.
A Dmaj7 Bm
Behind the door Im listening;
A Dmaj7
She said shes gonna fly.
Dmaj7 E7 Riff
With words your mouth shes kissing.
E7 Amaj7 Dmaj7 Bm
And she said, "Woah, oh, oh, child,
Dmaj7
Your back is straight;
Dmaj7 E7 Riff
Dont let hurt curve it that way."
E7
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.
Dmaj7 Bm Aadd9 A x2
E7 Dmaj7 Bm
But I said, "Mama, please take me home;
Cause I cant [Amaj7]stand being al[Dmaj7]one[Bm]
Cause the [E7]pain is shooting down my spi[Dmaj7]ne aga[Bm]in."
Dmaj7 E7 Riff
Said, "Daddys feeling sick; oh, I think hes gonna quit."
E7
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.
Dmaj7 Bm Aadd9 A x2
[Dmaj7]Sweetn[Bm]ess,
[Bm]On the mouth of your [Aadd9]car - [A]ess.
[Dmaj7]Twilig[Bm]ht
[Bm]Past the stars of that [Aadd9]open n[A]ight.
