Intro: G  C  D  C  G 

         G 
She was just sixteen and all alone 
Am 
When I came to be 
   D 
So we grew up together 
C                 G 
My mama child and me 

Now things were bad and she was scared 
       C 
But whenever I would cry 
      D 
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears 
       C                   G 
With a rock and roll lullaby 

And she'd sing 

G                                   Am 
Sha na na na na na na na na na it'll be alright 
C                    D                  G 
Sha na na na na na na na na na now just hold on tight 

(Sing it to me mama ma ma ma ma ma) 
 G                                   Am 
Sha na na na na na na na na na it'll be alright 
          C                  D 
Sing it sweet and clear, oh Mama let me hear that old 
 C                 G 
Rock and roll lullaby 

Solo G  Am  C  D  C  G 

    G 
We made it through the lonely days 
Am 
But Lord the nights were long 
           D 
And we'd dream of better moments 
C                G 
When mama sang a song 
       G 
Now I can't recall the words at all 
    C 
It don't make sense to try 
      D 
Cause I just knew lots of love came through 
          C               G 
In that rock and roll lullaby 

And she'd sing 


 G                                    Am 
Sha na na na na na na na na na  it'll be alright 
 C                    D                  G 
Sha na na na na na na na na na now just hold on tight 

(I can hear ya mama ma ma ma ma ma) 
 G                                     Am 
Sha na na na na na na na na na it'll be alright 
          C                     D 
Nothin' eased my sole like the sound of a good old 
C                G 
Rock and roll lullaby 

Final: G  Am  C  D  C  Am  G
