[Verse 1]
          C                 C
One day a mother, went to a prison.
          G                    C
To see an erring, but precious son.
             C                    C
She told the warden, how much she loved him.
           G                   C
It did not matter, what he had done.

[Chorus]
            C                         C
She did not bring,        a parole or pardon.
           (bring to him,             pardon plea).
               G                           C
She brought no silver,          no pomp or style.
              (brought no gold,            none to see).
         C                            F
It was a halo,         sent down from heaven.
        (halo bright,                 heaven's light).
             C       G        C
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile.

She left a smile, you can remember.
              G                       C
She's gone to heaven, from heartaches free.
             C                      C
Those walls around you, could never change her.
             G                   C
You were her baby, and e'er will be.

[Chorus]
            C                         C
She did not bring,        a parole or pardon.
