[Verse]
Em C G D*
mother don't worry, i killed the last snake that lived in the creek bed
mother don't worry, i've got some money i save for the weekend
mother remember being so stern with that girl who was with me?
mother remember the blink of an eye when i breathed through your body?
[Chorus]
Em C G D
so may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
sons are like birds flying upward over the mountain
[Verse]
Em C G D
mother i made it up from the bruise of a floor of this prison
mother i lost it, all of the fear of the Lord i was given
mother forget me now that the creek drank the cradle you sang to
mother forgive me, i sold your car for the shoes that i gave you
[Chorus]
Em C G D
so may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
sons are like birds flying upward over the mountain
(Slide Lead)
[Verse]
Em C G D
mother don't worry, i've got a coat & some friends on the corner
mother don't worry, she's got a garden we're planting together
mother remember the night that the dog had her pups in the pantry?
blood on the floor & the fleas on their paws
and you cried 'til the morning
[Chorus]
Em C G
D
so may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
sons are like birds flying upward over the mountain
There ya go guys - alex
