[Intro]
F Gm Dm
[Verse 1]
F Gm Dm
Mama, I know you cannot let go
F Gm
The weight that I have placed upon your scales
Dm
Is more than they were meant to hold
F Gm Dm
But steady is the hand that leads me home
F Gm
I’ve never known its plan, but I’m still grasping
Dm
To the other end of its rope
F Gm Dm
Like you [x2]
[Verse 2]
F Gm Dm
Lately you just speak in words that broke
F Gm
Eventually the shards will break apart
Dm
Until they start in to make you choke
F Gm Dm
All of us were once baptized in hope
F Gm
Holy water that you gathered from the father
Dm
Until it started coming out of your throat
[Pre Chorus]
Bb F
And you felt it like a bad dream
Bb F
But I watched it like a movie screen
Bb F C
Different eyes can see the same thing and not realize what it means
[Chorus]
F Bb
Oh, Lord, where did I go wrong?
Gm
A cut cord?
C
A kettle left too long?
F Bb Gm C
But you won’t answer any prayers when I’m alone
F Bb
Perfume words from alabaster songs
Gm C
And tales of hurt described by fiery tongues
F Bb Gm C
But you won’t answer any prayers when I’m alone
Bb C [F Gm Dm] x2
Why don't you come back like when I was young?
[Verse 3]
F Gm Dm
Mama, I know you cannot let go
F Gm
Though we have both been rowing toward the ocean
Dm
It seems our motions split some time ago
F Gm Dm
Shaky are the hands with which we row
F Gm
The way the rapids turn the land to sand
Dm
Feels like a steady plan to take us home
[Pre Chorus]
Bb F
You felt it like an ending
Bb F
But I watched it like a new scene
Bb F C
Different ears can hear the same thing and not agree on what it means
[Chorus]
F Bb
Oh, Lord, where did I go wrong?
Gm
A cut cord?
C
A kettle left too long?
F Bb Gm C
But you won’t answer any prayers when I’m alone
F Bb
Perfume words from alabaster songs
Gm C
And tales of hurt described by fiery tongues
F Bb Gm C
But you won’t answer any prayers when I’m alone
Bb C [F Gm Dm] x2
Why don't you come back like when I was young?
[Outro]
F Gm Dm
Like You
