MOTHER'S LAMENT
CREAM - Disraeli Gears : capo on 5th
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/cream/mothers_lament_crd.html ]
A one, a two, a phree, a pho--ah...
[D] [G]
A mother was washing her baby one night;
[A] [D] A
The youngest of ten and a delicate mite.
[D] [G]
The mother was poor and the baby was thin;
[A] [D] A
'Twas naught but a skeleton covered with skin.
[D] [G]
The mother turned 'round for a soap off the rack.
[A] [D] A
She was only a moment but when she turned back
[D] [G]
Her baby had gone, and in anguish she cried,
[A] [D] A
"Oh, where has my baby gone?" The angels replied:
[D] [G]
Oh, your baby has gone down the plug hole.
[A] [D]
Your baby has gone down the plug.
G G7 D B7
The poor little thing was so skinny and thin,
[E7] A A7
He should have been washed in a jug, in a jug.
[D] [G]
Your baby is perfectly happy;
[A] [D]
He won't need a bath anymore.
[G] [D] E7
He's a-muckin' about with the angels above,
[A] A7 [D]
Not lost but gone before.
