[Verse 1]
G D
When I was young, I do recall,
D G
We would go to school, in the early fall,
G D
But on the days, when there was no school,
D G
I'd learned to play, by a different rule.
[Chorus]
C
Get out of that bed, you sleepy head,
C
My hockey mom would say,
G
Grab your skates, and don't be late,
G D
There's a hockey game today!
C
And poor old dad, was feeling bad,
C
Because he couldn't come,
G
He had to go to work,
G D
And so I took my orders from,
G
My Hockey Mom.
C
My Hockey Mom,
D
She was my chum,
G
My Hockey Mom.
C D G
[Verse 2]
G D
Well then we drove, to the rink in town,
D G
And I'd hit the ice, by falling down,
G D
And then I'd score, for the other team,
D G
You could hear my mom, Stand up and scream!
[Chorus]
C
Get off of that ice, I told you twice,
C
To skate the other way,
G
Every year she'd bent my ear,
G D
Until I learned play.
C
And when my stick, got pretty quick,
C
And the puck to me would come,
G
Each time I scored, I knew for sure,
G D
Where the loudest cheer was from,
G
My Hockey Mom,
C
My Hockey Mom,
D
My day will come,
G
My Hockey Mom.
C D G
[Verse 3]
G D
And then one day, a stranger came,
D G
From far away, and he took my name,
G D
And very soon, for the N.H.L.,
D G
I came to play, and mom came to yell.
[Chorus]
C
Get on that puck, and stir things up,
C
And show some winning pride!
G
And every time, she'd say that line,
G D
I'd bang that puck inside!
C
And here's my dad, all mister Glad,
C
He knew this night would come,
G
We're all lined up, for the Stanley Cup,
G D
And the tears are rolling from,
G
My Hockey Mom,
C
My Hockey Mom,
D
Ain't she the plum?
G
My Hockey Mom.
C
My Hockey Mom,
D
Forever Young,
G
My Hockey Mom.
