Intro: G C Am D C G
She was just sixteen and all alone
C Am
Whem I came to be
D
So we grew up together
C D G
My mamma child and me
Now things were bad
And she was scared
C Am
But whenever I would cry
D
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears
C D G
With a rock'n'roll, lullaby
And she'd sing
Sha na na na na na na na na
Am
It will be all right
C D

Let's just hold on tight
Sing it to me mamma
Am
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
C
Sing it sweet and clear
D
Oh, mamma let me hear
C D G Am C D C G
That old rock'n'roll, lullaby
We´ve made it through the lonely days
C Am
But Lord the nigths were long
D
And we dreamed of better mornings
C D G
When mamma sang her song
Now I can't recall the words at all
C Am
And it don't make sense to try
D
Cause I just knew lots of love came through

In that rock'n'roll, Lullaby
And she'd sing
Sha na na na na na na na na
