  GDear Mother can you hear my footsteps?
  C#I’m so close,  C#I’m right there.
  AI’m almost G#home, so unpreBpared
To notice   Byet ignore
AHow hard it is to G#be around you.
  C#I've come clean,  C#I’m washed out.
  AI've flooded the G#engine, stranded myBself.
This home,  Bnative land
AThey speak in words I G#can’t understand.
  ASo when I’m Bstanding on this G#street like I Ehave a D#hundred Atimes,
You don’t Beven glance at G#me you just pass me by.
EI remember your faD#ce, from the moment C#I first saw you I Bnever looked aAway.
I’ll never forget Ehow you looked that SaturD#day when you told me
C#We could never Bbe together, and AI could never change.
  GMother, Mother is it you who’s calling?
  C#Lights out,  C#lay down,
  AWe’ll sleep when we’re G#dead, that time is Bnow.
But soft speak   Bwill drown out
AHow I can’t do what’s G#right around you.
  C#Cold breeze,  C#no coat,
  AExcuses G#used to take words from my Bthroat.
False hope   Bconfirmed.
ADeceits a language G#I can’t hope to Alearn.
  So when I’m Bstanding on this G#street like I Ehave a D#hundred Atimes,
We will Bcelebrate the G#years you stalled and couldn't decide.
EI remember your faD#ce, from the moment C#I first saw you I Bnever looked aAway.
I’ll never forget Ehow you looked that SaturD#day when you told me
C#We could never Bbe together, and AI could never change.
  C#I used to believe that every C#person had a purpose
In this C#swirling ball of indecision Bthat consumes us all.
  C#I used to believe that every C#person had a person
They could C#always count on and not be scared of, Bone for everyone.
  ASo when I’m Bstanding on this G#street like I Ehave a D#hundred Atimes,
Can I Bwalk away and G#finally leave, G#finally leave all of this behind?
EI remember your faD#ce, from the moment C#I first saw you I Bnever looked aAway.
I’ll never forget Ehow you looked that SaturD#day when you told me
C#We could never Bbe together, and AI could never change.
EI remember your faD#ce, from the moment C#I first saw you I Bnever looked aAway.
I’ll never forget Ehow you looked that SaturD#day when you told me
C#~            B~               A~ 
We could never be together, and I could never change.

To notice yet ignore

I've flooded the engine, stranded myself.

This home, native land

A G#

They speak in words I can’t understand.

A B G# E D# A

So when I’m standing on this street like I have a hundred times,

You don’t even glance at me you just pass me by.

I remember your face, from the moment I first saw you I never looked away.

I’ll never forget how you looked that Saturday when you told me

We could never be together, and I could never change.

Mother, Mother is it you who’s calling?

C# C#

Lights out, lay down,

We’ll sleep when we’re dead, that time is now.

But soft speak will drown out

A G#

How I can’t do what’s right around you.

Cold breeze, no coat,

Excuses used to take words from my throat.

False hope confirmed.
