*******************************************
This is my attempt of a tab for this song. I tried to be as accurate as I can.
In the intro section I didn't write the cord repetions or picking/strumming
patterns so please relay on the song.

Verse
Perhaps it is the color of the sun cut
flat
And
coverin' the c
rossroads I'm standing at
Or
maybe it's the weathe
r or s
omething like
that
oh but mama you've been
on my
mind
I don't mean trouble please don't put me down don't get
upset
I am not
pleading or
saying that I can't forget you
I do not pace the floor bo
wed dow
n and bent bu
t yet
Oh mama you've been
on my mi
nd
Even though my eyes are hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you've
been don't bother
me
or bring me down with sorrow
I don't even mind who you'll be
waking
with tomorr
ow
But mama you've been
on my min
d
I am not askin' you to say words like yes or no
Please understand
me
I have no place I'm callin' you to go
I'm just whispering to myself
so I ca
n pretend that I don't
know
Oh mama you've been o
n my min
d
Bridge
Verse
When you wake up in the mornin' baby look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you y
ou know I won't be n
ear
I'd just be curious to know if you can
see yourse
lf as clear
As som
eone who has had yo
u on his mi
nd
outro
