[Verse 1]
D                          G             D
On a dark stormy night the angels called mother
D                                      A
The love that we had shared for such a short while
D                        G            D
She called us around and said she was leaving
D    G           D         A           D
Then closing her eyes, she went with a smile


[Chorus]
D                     G            D
Mother's at rest in a lonesome old graveyard
D                                         A
On a hill far away there stands her white tomb
A        G             D     A     G  A
With the grass covered o'er, seems so neglected
A                       D     A                  D
When the spring seasons come, sweet flowers will bloom


[Verse 2]
D                          G      D
I'll never forget the love mother gave us
D                                    A
As children we played around our old home
A          D           G          D
I know her reward is a mansion in heaven
D         G                     A             D
While her children on earth all scattered and gone


[Chorus]
D                     G            D
Mother's at rest in a lonesome old graveyard
D                                         A
On a hill far away there stands her white tomb
A        G             D     A     G  A
With the grass covered o'er, seems so neglected
A                       D     A                  D
When the spring seasons come, sweet flowers will bloom
