The kitchen smells like orange peels 
Her stomach turns like a spinning wheel 
        G 
Put the baby down in her little seat 
           D 
You should rest now momma, you should eat 
Asus4 
It ain't right you been working all day 
    G 
And all us kids getting in your way 
       D                                    A     Asus4 
So she goes to bed as soon as the kitchen's clean 
                                               D 
That don't mean a thing to you, but it does to me 

D 
Well I don't know if this part is true 
How memories lie, sometimes they do 
          G 
But I can see her in our living room 
       D 
With a smile on her face as she?s dancing to 
Asus4                        G 
Judy Garland, Carnegie Hall, Sunday April 23rd

She said her cousin had a balcony seat 
                                               D 
That don't mean a thing to you, but it does to me

Oh Lord, am I good enough 
Bm                       Ausu4 
When this world spins as hard as it does 
       G                                   D  Asus4 
And we both know how it shakes some people up 
           G                             D 
So how did you decide to give me so much love 

D 
Well she never said a word to me 
About dying, about how she?d leave 
   G 
In all her pain she would never cry 
          D 
Me and my best friend Tina would ride our bikes

From Lelland Road up Daily Drive

We took a paper route one summer time 
       D                               A  Asus4 
Tina?s mom said I was part of the fami ly 
                                              D 
That don't mean a thing to you but it does to me 

Bm            A           Asus4 
Oh Lord, am I good enough

When this world spins as hard as it does 
       G                                   D  Asus4 
And we both know how it shakes some people up 
           G                             D     Asus4 
So how did you decide to give me so much love, love 
        G             D    Asus4 
So much love, so much love 
D     Asus4                     G 
Love, love, you give me so much love 
        D 
So much love 

D 
No one?s had a bigger say 
In who I am today 
      G 
And I swear I've tried to be worthy of 
    D 
The name they gave me when I was young 
      Asus4 
But I ain't that pretty, I ain't that brave 
   G 
My kids have seen me cry 
                 D                              A   Asus4 
They should have given her name to my sister Ma rie 
That don't mean a thing to you 
                           G 
That don't mean a thing to you 
               D 
But it does to me
