Kasey Chambers - Mother [No Capo]
From "Wayward Angel" (2004)
INTRO: [E] [F#] [B] [B]
[B]Do you remember when I was a [E]baby
Did I [B]cry, did I [F#]cry?
I [E]only re[F#]member the [B]days I was [E]laughing
When [B]you sang me [E]sweet lulla[F#]bys
when you sang me sweet bye and [B]bye
[B]Sometimes I wondered if you were an [E]angel
Would you [B]fly, would you [F#]fly?
Or [E]would you just [F#]hover right [B]here by my [E]side
[B]keeping me [E]warm and [F#]dry
keeping me safe by your [B]side
CHORUS:
[G#m]Mother [E]Mother won't [B]fall from [F#]grace
[G#m]Light a [E]room with the [B]lines on your [F#]face
And if [B]you were a [E]river run [B]dry [F#]
Well [E]I'd sing you [F#]sweet bye and [B]bye
[B]All of the birds that land on my [E]window
sing your [B]name, sing your [F#]name
when [E]all of the [F#]time I am [B]crying a[E]gain
about [B]how much the [E]sky likes to [F#]rain
when I should be singing your [B]name
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL: [E] [F#] [B] [E]
[F#] [B]
BRIDGE:
[G#m]And all of the [E]flowers by the [B]side of the [F#]road
they [G#m]whisper your [E]name while they [B]grow [F#]
and if [B]you were a [E]river run [B]dry [F#]
well [E]I'd sing you [F#]sweet bye and [B]bye
and if [B]you were a [E]river run [B]dry [F#]
well [E]I'd sing you [F#]sweet bye and [B]bye
