Kasey Chambers - Mother

From "Wayward Angel" (2004)

Capo: 4th Fret

INTRO:  [C]   [D]   [G]   [G]

[G]Do you remember when I was a [C]baby
Did I [G]cry, did I [D]cry?
I [C]only re[D]member the [G]days I was [C]laughing
When [G]you sang me [C]sweet lulla[D]bys
when you sang me sweet bye and [G]bye

[G]Sometimes I wondered if you were an [C]angel
Would you [G]fly, would you [D]fly?
Or [C]would you just [D]hover right [G]here by my [C]side
[G]keeping me [C]warm and [D]dry
keeping me safe by your [G]side

CHORUS:
[Em]Mother [C]Mother won't [G]fall from [D]grace
[Em]Light a [C]room with the [G]lines on your [D]face
And if [G]you were a [C]river run [G]dry  [D]
Well [C]I'd sing you [D]sweet bye and [G]bye

[G]All of the birds that land on my [C]wind
sing your [G]name, sing your [D]name
when [C]all of the [D]time I am [G]crying a[C]gain
about [G]how much the [C]sky likes to [D]rain
when I should be singing your [G]name

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL:  [C]   [D]   [G]   [C]
               [D]         [G]

BRIDGE:
[Em]And all of the [C]flowers by the [G]side of the [D]road
they [Em]whisper your [C]name while they [G]grow  [D]
and if [G]you were a [C]river run [G]dry  [D]
well [C]I'd sing you [D]sweet bye and [G]bye

and if [G]you were a [C]river run [G]dry  [D]
well [C]I'd sing you [D]sweet bye and [G]bye
