Mother Said

• Fm/C

Intro: Fm/C 
 
Fm/C 
Mother said, don't leave me 
             Db 
There are monsters at the door 
Ebadd9 
I put on all my armour 
       Em5-(b9) 
But I couldn't find my sword 
               Bb/D 
But there'll always be tomorrow 
Bbm/Db 
Just you wait and see 
         Fsus4/C 
If they come to take you prisoner 
       Cm                   C 
I'll be there to set you free 
 
 
Fm/C 
Mother said, I'm grown up 
      Db 
In a Sunday shirt and tie 
   Ebadd9 
As long as I can see you 
        Em5-(b9) 
Can I hold you when I cry 
          Bb/D 
There'll always be tomorrow 
  Bbm/Db 
I'll be so big and strong 
   Em5-(b9) 
I'll sleep with all the lights out 
     C6 
Not afraid of anyone 
 
 
(*) 
F - Dm7 - F/C - G7 
I need you to stay 
F - Dm7 - F/C - G7 
I need you to stay 
F - Dm7 - F/C - C7sus4( or C7(no3)) 
I need you 
 
 
 
Fm/C 
Mother said she's sleeping 
      Db7  
So I climbed back into bed 
          Ebadd9 
But the monsters took her prisoner 
         Em5-(b9) 
That's all that father said 
      Bb/D 
So I thought about tomorrow 
       Bbm/Db 
And I learned to be alone 
Fsus4/C 
Making friends with shadows 
           Cm                     C 
As they moved around my home 
 
 
Fm/C 
Mother never leaves me 
       Db 
I can always see her smile 
Ebadd9 
I sit here in the evening 
    Em5-(b9) 
To talk to her awhile 
          Bb/D 
There'll always be tomorrow 
Bbm/Db 
Just you wait and see 
Em5-(b9) 
I know that any moment 
           C6 
She will come to set me free 
 
 
Repeat: (*)
