[Intro]
BmAGD
x2
[Verse 1]
Bm
This is for my mother
A D/F# G
From the older brother of your children, made of three
D/F#
Now you found your lover
G D/F# A
'Cause it wasn't our father who made you laugh and happy
Bm
It's been a long five years
A D/F# G
I've cried a thousand tears, and here we are, after the war
D/F#
But we're so much better
G D/F# G
Now the skies are clearer, now there's no more slammin' doors
[Chorus]
Bm
Now, I say
A G D
Dear Mother, how you've come so far
Bm A G D
Your love has fixed all of our broken hearts
Bm A G D
I hope you're proud, Mother, of what you've done
D/F# G A
It's a lifelong lesson and I'm not pretendin' when I say
Bm A D/F# G
You cleared up my scars
D/F# G D/F# A
You cleared up my scars
[Verse 2]
Bm
This is for my father
A D/F# G
From the older brother of your children made of three
D/F#
Yeah, you've been so good to us
G D/F# A
And showed us how to live and taught us to be free
Bm
But when Mother told you
A D/F# G
That she didn't love you, all these bridges hit the sea
D/F#
So you built another one
A D/F# A
And helped us cross it, even though you were in need
[Chorus]
Bm
Now, I say
A G D
Dear Father, how you've come so far
Bm A G D
Your love has fixed all of our broken hearts
Bm A G D
I hope you're proud, Father, of what you've done
D/F# G A
It's a lifelong lesson and I'm not pretendin' when I say
Bm A D/F# G
You cleared up my scars
D/F# G D/F# A
You cleared up my scars
Bm A D/F# G
You cleared up my scars
D/F# G D/F# A
You cleared up my scars
[Outro]
A G D
Dear Mother, how you've come so far
Bm A G D
Your love has fixed all of our broken hearts
Bm A G D
I hope you're proud, Mother, of what you've done
D/F# G A
It's a lifelong lesson and I'm not pretendin' when I say
