The McCarter's - I Give You Music
Lyrics adapted for Mother's Day
[Verse1]
G D G
Children, Come listen to me
G D G
I’m just a lonely minstrel as you can see.
C G
I have no worldly goods to pass along
C G
All I can give you is a passing song
D
No buildings named for me
C D
Just lasting harmony
G D C D
I give you music
[Chorus1]
G D
I give you music, just like my MOTHER did
G C
And just like HER MOTHER before HER, a precious gift
G D C
There’s nothing quite as strong as the feeling in a song
G D C D
I give you music
[Verse2]
G D G
Now I don’t think myself a special breed
G D G
I’m just a common MAN that fills a need
C G
To sing of war and peace and right and wrong
C G
Give me attention and I’ll sing you a song
D C G
To have and hold, richer than diamonds or gold
G D C D
I give you music
[Chorus2]
G D
I give you music, just like my MOTHER did
G C
And just like HER MOTHER before HER, a precious gift
G D C
There’s nothing quite as strong as the feeling in a song
G D C D
I give you music
[Chorus3]
G D
I give you music, just like my MOTHER did
G C
And just like HER MOTHER before HER, a precious gift
G D C
There’s nothing quite as strong as the feeling in a song
G D C D
I give you music
