Intro: G B7

C G
Am D


G B7
I remember the day you appeared on this earth
C G
With eyes like the ocean got blood on my shirt
C G
From my camera angle it looked like it hurt
Am D
But your momma had a big old smile


G B7
We drove you home saw your yellowing skin
C G
Packed a few things and drove you back again
C G
Stayed up all night worrying wondering
Am D
What was gonna make it better


Am D
Broken bones heal if you set them right
G G/F# Em
Get your fine-toothed comb from the barber’s side
C D
Our love’s a protective poison
C C/B C C/B Am
But you are your mother’s child
G G/F# G G/F# Em
And she’ll keep you for a while
C D (G Am*)x3 G-Cadd9-G
But one day you’ll be grown then you’ll be on your own


G B7
Halloween costume looking real cute
C G
With your pillow case full in your astronaut suit
C G
Your cousin the cowboy he’s eyeing your loot
Am D
Better watch your Snickers bar


G B7
Out on the diamond you’re up to bat
C G
Chewing your Big League adjusting your hat
C G
Taking a swing and hearing it crack
Am D
Look at that apple fly


Am D
Well tears will dry if you give them time
G G/F# Em
Life’s a rollercoaster keep your arms inside
C D
Fear that’s a big emotion
C C/B C C/B Am
But you are your mother’s child
G G/F# G G/F# Em
And she’ll keep you for a while
C D (G Am*)x3 G-Cadd9-G
But soon you’ll be grown then you’ll be on your own


G B7
Posing for pictures cap and gown
C G
Summer is coming you’re driving round town
C G
Everyone’s asking what you’re gonna do now
Am D
I know you’re gonna make a splash


G B7
Find you a sweetheart to treat you so kind
C G
Take her to dinner and kiss her goodnight
C G
What I couldn’t teach you soon you realize
Am D
She’s the only thing that matters


Am D
Although he’s a bastard make your papa proud
G G/F# Em
You’re a fine young man and I got no doubt
C D
That you’re gonna do this better
C C/B C C/B Am
‘Cause you are your mother’s child
G G/F# G G/F# Em
And she had you for a while
C D G G/F# Em
But now you are grown you’re making it on your own
C D (G Am*)x3 G-Cadd9-G
Now that you’re grown man you never feel this alone
