Mother by Jack Savoretti
Mother lyrics
Capo 2 (F* 033200 ~ 033210)
Intro. Am Am
Am F
They killed a man for doing wrong today
C G
When all he ever did in life was look the other way
Am F
And with his verdict someone heard him pray
C G
The crowd gathered around to see the look on his face
F Am G
Will they ever know, the last words he spoke.
F *
He Cried "Mother!"
Am
As the people stood and stared.
G
He Cried "Mother."
Am
And no one seemed to care.
Am F
Barely 25 years to his name
C G
Only the good die young it's too hard to say
Am F C
With a wife and child living back at home far from here
G
where he dies all alone
F Am
Will they ever know, the last words he spoke
F *
He Cried "Mother!"
Am
Ask the people ho were there
G
He Cried "Mother."
Am
And it sounded like a prayer
"Guitar and harp plays" 2 rounds
Am F
They killed a man for doing wrong today " humming rest of the song "
