V1    
   G5             G5
Mother can you hold me together
        Bb5           Amin      G5
It's so dark and I'm losing my way
   G5
It took all of these detours to find love
           Bb5          Amin   G5
But when I did it just faded away

Chorus:
    Emin      G5             C5          G5
Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine
    Emin      G5             F5             D5   
Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find
        G5        Amin        B-           C5
Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars
       F5           C5
Mother teach me to love
                  G5
With a paper thin heart

Mother your words are so healing
             Bb5            A-           G5
You speak of love, and of light, and of peace
         G5
But I've made it my course to avoid you
        Bb5              A-          G5
Just to hide from these feelings of grief

Now what do I do with this sweet love of mine

Do I give it away, and hope someday I'll find

Someone half as awake as the moon and the stars

Mother teach me to love
                  G5
With a paper thin heart

Mother, I know you are with me
        Bb5           A-        G5
You were there when I took my first breath
   G5
I can't stop looking back for the answers
       Bb5          A-        G5
I just keep coming up with regret
          Bb5             A-           G5
There are some things I just can't forget
