My little girl and I lost mamma just three years ago
F C D7 G7
And now that she is older there are things she wants to know
C F C
She said please daddy tell me bout my mother cause I miss her
F C G7 C
I said get pen and paper and I'll help your draw her picture
F C
I said first draw a heart so big there's room for little else
F C G7
Then write a million for the things that she denied herself
C F C
Draw a rose the kind of which there'll never be another
F C G7 C
And when you finish you will have a picture of your mother
C F C
If you want to make the picture even more complete
F C D7 G7
You could draw a little cottage draw it nice and neat
C F C
Draw a bright and shining sun up in the sky above
F C G7 C
But then again I guess it's pretty hard to draw my love
F C
So draw a heart so big there's room for little else
F C G7
Then write a million for the things that she denied herself
C F C
Draw a rose the kind of which there'll never be another
F C G7 C
And when you finish you will have a picture of your mother
