Verse: 

A                D 
Oh my mama told me 
A                                   E 
'Cause she say she learned the hard way 
A                                D 
She say she wanna spare the children 
D 
She say don't give or sell your soul away 
       A             E            A 
'Cause all that you have is your soul 




[Refrão]
D  
So don't be tempted by the shiny apple 
A 
Don't you eat of a bitter fruit 
D 
Hunger only for a taste of justice 
A 
Hunger only for a world of truth 
                    E            A 
'Cause all that you have is your soul 


Verse: 

D 
Well I was a pretty young girl once 
A 
I had dreams I had high hopes 
E 
I married a man he stole my heart away 
D 
He gave his love but what a high price I paid 
A            E            A 
All that you have is your soul 

D 
Why was I such a young fool 
A 
Thought I'd make history  
Making babies was the best I could do 
E 
Thought I'd made something that could be mine forever 
D 
Found out the hard way one can't possess another 
    A            E            A 
And all that you have is your soul

Verse: 

D 
I thought, thought that I could find a way 
A 
To beat the system 
To make a deal and have no debts to pay 
E 
I'd take it all, I'd take it all, I'd run away 
D 
Me for myself first class and first rate 
    A            E            A 
But all that you have is your soul 

D 
Here I am, I'm waiting for a better day 
A 
A second chance 
A little luck to come my way 
E 
A hope to dream, a hope that I can sleep again 
D 
And wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands 
       A            E             A 
'Cause all that you have is your soul
