Mother may I, I would say

Powerful is the woman in you

Stay true 

      D            A         E              F#m 
And she'd come to me when fire & water was gone 
    D          A       C# 
To caress the empty with a song 
        D            A         E              F#m 
Saying why cry for anger that bullets the sky

I know my face seems crazed & wild 
F#m     C#aug    A       B           B/C# 
But I got her eyes, A mama's child am I 
F#m  C#aug    A                 B    B/C# 
She's blessed with grace & is smooth as a line 
F#m  C#aug    A        B   B/C# 
And when I shade she helps me shine

And she comes to me when there's nothing I believe 
    D          A       C# 
And holds me so high yes I am free 
        D            A         E              F#m 
Saying why hold the anger, it won't let you fly 
    D               A       C# 
Just remember I'll remember & mama mama 
          F#m 
I'll get by...
 

Confused by my own illusions 
She said that it's only my pride 
And even the simplest solutions 
Still won't heal my mind 
So I'll remember 
I'll remember and I'll get by
