"Mother, Mother"
By: Tracy Bonham
Album: The Burdens of Being Upright
The opening riff and most of the song:
"Mother, Mother...are you listening?"
Am G#m Gm F#m, then back up strumming once at each fret. Listen to the song
to get the rhythm.
I play them with barre chords, slightly muted, staying on the lower strings.
The pre-chorus part:
"When you sent me off to seek the world..."
Am Gm Fm
The chorus part:
"I'm hungry...I'm dirty...I'm losing my mind...EVERYTHING'S FINE!!!"
Not quite sure...I think it's Fm every time with a bit of distortion thrown
in. Any suggestions on this part?
Overall, I think this was a pretty easy song to figure out and to play.
Anyone want to figure out the tidbits of violin in the song?

A G#
Mother Mother How's the family?
G F# F# G G#
Just a phone call To say hello
That's the basic jist of it....play with this, and it will sound good.
It is really simple, all you do is play these chords through the verse:
A e +-5-+ G# e +-4-+ G e +-3-+ F# e +-2------------------+
b +-5-+ b +-4-+ b +-3-+ b +-2------------------+
g +-6-+ g +-5-+ g +-4-+ g +-3------------------+
D +-7-+ D +-6-+ D +-5-+ D +-4------------------+
A +-7-+ A +-6-+ A +-5-+ A +-4------------------+
E +-5-+ E +-4-+ E +-3-+ E +-2------------------+
You play A G# G F# about 1 or 2 measures each then go back up the neck (G G# A)
one measure each.
I'm not sure about the chorus but I think it is just the same only distorted.
Here is how I play it:
A G#
Mother mother how's the family?
G F#
I'm just calling to say hello
A G#
How's the weather? How's my father?
G F#
Am I lonely? Heavens no
A G#
Mother mother are ya listening?
G F#
Just a phone call to ease your mind
A G#
Life is perfect never better
G F#
Distance making the heart grow fond
E D C ( D )
When you sent me off to see the world
E D C ( D )
Were you scared that I might get hurt?
E D C ( D )
Would I try a little tobacco
E D C ( D )
Would I keep on hiking up my skirt?
A
I'm hungry
A
I'm dirty
A
I'm losing my mind
A G# G F#
Everything's fine!
A
I'm freezing
A
I'm starving
A
I'm bleeding to death
A G# G F#
Everything's fine!
and so on.....
