Text – Playback – Gitarre – Akkorde

 

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Some- ^Dm times I feel like a ^Gm motherless ^Dm child,
some- ^Gm times I feel like a ^A7 motherless ^Dm child,
sometimes I feel like a ^Gm motherless ^Dm child,
a ^Bb/B* long way from ^A7 ho- ^Dm me,
a ^Bb/B* long ^Dm way ^A7 from ^Dm home

 

1. Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
a long way from home,
a long way from home.

2. Sometimes I wish I could fly like a bird up in the sky,
Sometimes I wish I could fly like a bird up in the sky,
Sometimes I wish I could fly like a bird up in the sky,
A little closer to home.
A little closer to home.

3. Motherless children have a hard time,
Motherless children have a hard time,
Motherless children have a hard time,
A long way from home.
A long way from home.

4. Sometimes I feel like freedom is near,
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near,
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near,
But we’re so far from home.
But we’re so far from home.

5. Sometimes I feel like the Kingdom is at hand,
Sometimes I feel like the Kingdom is at hand,
Sometimes I feel like the Kingdom is at hand,
But we’re so far from home.
But we’re so far from home.
