Intro
--------
Em C G D (x2)
[Em]Mother don't w[C]orry, I killed the [G]last snake that lived in a [D]creek bed
Mother don't worry, I got some money I saved for the weekend
Mother remember being so stern about the girl who was with me
Mother remember the blink of an eye when I breathed through your body
[Em]So may the sun[C]rise spring h[G]ope where it once was [D]forgotten
Sons are like birds, flying upwards over the mountain
(Repeat Pattern)
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
So may the sunrise spring hope where it once was forgotten
Sons can be birds, taken broken up to the mountain

[Em]Mother don't w[C]orry, I've got a[G] coat & some friends on the co[D]rner
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
[Em]So may the sun[C]rise bring ho[G]pe where it once was f[D]orgotten
Sons are like birds flying always over the mountain
