Ryan Adams - Mamma Chords

[i̇ntro]
E  A  E  A

[verse]
E               A
Woman, am I the human
         C#m   G#m
am I the depot
         A
When the train rolls in
E               A
Mamma, am I the human
         C#m      G#m
am I the crowbars
         A
When the door's kicked in
E               A
Woman, am I the children
             C#m      G#m
Watching the spacemen
             A
From the television

[pre-chorus]
A               B
Mamma, am I the caveman
         E
am I the buffalo
         A
am I the dried up bones

[chorus]
A                               E
Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
A                               E
Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
A                               E
Mamma, did you leave my brother alone
                     B
You didn't leave him alive
A                                     E
Mamma, how was he supposed to survive

[verse]
E               A
Woman, am I the human
         C#m        G#m
am I the turbulence
          A
Under the wingspan
E                 A
Mamma, am I still Batman
         C#m    G#m
am I the sirens
         A
am I the ambulance
E               A
Woman, am I too weak then
              C#m       G#m
Shove all the rocks all
                  A
In lines with the plowman

[pre-chorus]
A               B
Mamma, am I the snowman
         E
am I the rainfall
                      A
And the sky when it's freezing

[chorus]
A                                  E
Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
A                                  E
Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
A                                  E
Mamma, did you leave my brother to die
                     B
You didn't leave him alive
A                                     E
Mamma, how was he supposed to survive

[outro]
          A
Without a woman
          C#m     G#m
Without a brother
          A
Without a sister
          B
Without a father
          E
Without a mother
       A
Oh, my brother
                              E
How was he supposed to survive
   A
My armour
                       E
How was he supposed to survive
