[VERSE]

        C
It was kinda hard believing
       F
Mama Stewart couldn't see me then
   C                             G
Or even that her age was ninety-four
             C 
'Cause the years that took her sight away
     F
Had given her the right to say
      D7                                    G
What she believed, and she did, praise the Lord

          C
And the things she said reminded me
     F
Of things I'd grown too blind to see
     C                               F
And feelings that I'd hidden deep inside
                                                C
And when she said goodbye and kissed me I was thankful 
                             G                C
She couldn't see the sudden tears I couldn't hide


[CHORUS]

F                           C
Everything is beautiful in Mama Stewart's eyes
G                             C
Another shining reason to believe
F                              C
Everything is new and full of wonder and surprise
   G                                C
Inside the world that Mama Stewart sees

[VERSE] 

     C
She rode the covered wagons west
      F
When she was only seven
         C                        G
But she came to California on a plane
             C
She said at ninety-four she thought for sure
       F
She'd got too close to heaven
     D7                            G
And like as not was going all the way

         C
But the miracle of medicine
     F
And good old time religion
   C                                   F
Removed the veil of darkness from her eyes
                                               C
They say she praised the Lord and thanked the doctor
                 G               C
And didn't even seem at all surprised


[CHORUS] 

F                           C
Everything is beautiful in Mama Stewart's eyes
G                             C
Another shining reason to believe
    F                              C
And everything is new and full of wonder and surprise
   G                                C
Inside the world that Mama Stewart sees
       G                            C
Lord, let me see what Mama Stewart sees
