Shell Be There

   G            A7           D   
If Heaven has a corner for a 
         G
woman of the world
        D                A7  
You can bet your bottom dollar 
            D
she'll be there

D          A7            G      
Mama was a dancer in her younger
           D
 days they tell me
G               D            E7 
She was quite a woman of the 
              A7
world or so they say
G           A7               G  
Daddy never took the time to 
                D
help her with our raisin'
G            D             A7   
I was just a baby when our daddy
       D
 went away

Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
          G           A7          
But there never was a day that we 
     D
went hungry
      G           D            
There never was a time we didn't 
                    A7
have our mother's care
       G            A7           
And if Heaven has a corner for a 
D            G
woman of the world
        D               A7   
You can bet your bottom dollar 
            D
she'll be there

D         A7              G     
Mama entertained a lot of young 
           D
men in the parlor
G                  D             
We'd look thru the keyhole until 
E7                 A7
she turned out the light
G               A7                
After they were gone we'd hear her
 G             D
 tiptoe up the staircase
G              D               
Mama couldn't sleep until she 
A7            D
kissed us all goodnight

[Chorus]
       G            A7           
Yes if Heaven has a corner for a 
D            G
woman of the world
        D                A7  
You can bet your bottom dollar 
             D
she'll be there
