Mothers Lament

  
CREAM - Disraeli Gears : 5 
Capo on 5th 

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.
