Intro: G Gsus2 G G Bb Amin G G
V1
G Gsus2
Mother can you hold me together
Bb Amin G
It's so dark and I'm losing my way
G
It took all of these detours to find love
Bb Amin G
But when I did it just faded away
Chorus:
Emin G C G
Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine
Emin G F D
Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find
G Amin B- C
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars
F C
Mother teach me to love
G
With a paper thin heart
V2
G Gsus2
Mother your words are so healing
Bb A- G
You speak of love, and of light, and of peace
G
But I've made it my course to avoid you
Bb A- G
Just to hide from these feelings of grief

Mother, I know you are with me

You were there when I took my first breath

I can't stop looking back for the answers

I just keep coming up with regret

There are some things I just can't forget
