[Verse 1]
G[Riff] Em7   C  G  
You were the mother of three girls so sweet
G[Riff] Em7   C  G  
That stormed through your turnstile and climbed to the street
G[Riff] Em7   C  G  
But after conception, your body lay cold
G[Riff] Em7   C  G  
And withered through autumn and you found yourself old
Can you tell me Dwhy you have been B7so sad?
G[Riff] Em7   C  G  
He took a lover on a faraway beach
G[Riff] Em7   C  G  
While you arranged flowers and chose color schemes
Can you tell me Dwhy you have been B7so GsaaCad?
Can you tell me Dwhy you have been B7so sGad?

[Verse 2]
GThe girls were all Amthere, they Emtraded their Dvows
GThe youngest one gAmlared with fCurrowed brDows
They tGenderly kAmissed, then cEmut the cDake
The Gbride then trAmipped and bCroke the vDase
GThe one you Amthought would Emspan the yeDars
So Gperfectly plAmaced belCow the mDirror
ArGriving Amlate, you Emcleaned the Ddebris
And Gwalked inAmto the aCngry scDene
It Amfelt just like Emfalling in Dlove Eagain
And it Amfelt just like Emfalling in Dlove Cagain
