Cream - Mother's Lament: Ukulele Chords

   G                      C
A mother was washing her baby one night;
     D                     G        D
The youngest of ten and a delicate mite.
     G                       C
The mother was poor and the baby was thin;
       D                     G             D
'Twas naught but a skeleton covered with skin.

The mother turned 'round for a soap off the rack
She was only a moment, but a-when she turned back
Her baby had gone and in anguish she cried
"Oh, where 'as my baby gone?" The angels replied

          G       Em               C
Oh, your baby has gone down the plug hole.
      D                       G
Your baby has gone down the plug.
      C           C7           D          E7
The poor little thing was so skinny and thin,
    A7                           D         D7
He should have been washed in a jug, in a jug.

Your baby is perfectly happy
He won't need a bath anymore
He's a-muckin' about with the angels above
Not lost, but gone before"

Thank you
Do you wanna do it again?
