Intro: Dm Uh...Comeon...Feel me...YesVerse 1:
Dm Shame on us, all your sons and your daughters Thieve all your gold and we poison all your waters Every piece of our soul is for sale now they bought us Think we know it all then look at where it got usF Oh, mama, mama G Oh, mama, mama Dm You're crying to the wind uh huhVerse 2:
Dm Trying to play God, even fucking with genetics All that you have given and we only disrespected The rate that we're going premature Armageddon That's what's gonna happen if we let itF Oh, mama, mama G Oh, mama, mama Dm You're crying to the windBridge:
F Is there any savin' us G We've become so dangerous F Is there any changin' us G Even for the sake of love F How you gonna kill your mama G Dm When only mama is gonna love you to the graveVerse 3:
Dm Killing our selves, falling down with the sickness Money is the king, it's a dirty bloody business There will be no trial, but the child will always witness If we're in love with hell, why the hell would heaven visitF Oh, mama, mama G Oh, mama, mama Dm You're crying to the windVerse 4:
Dm When mama gets the belt you gon' wish you didn't do it Had your chance for redemption, but you fucking blew it Now the weather's changin' and the hurricane is moving Right in your direction, what direction are you choosingF Oh, mama, mama G Oh, mama, mama Dm Forgive us for your painBridge:
F Is there any savin' us G We've become so dangerous F Is there any changin' us G Even for the sake of love F How you gonna kill your mama G Dm When only mama is gonna love you to the grave uh uhhhh to the grave uh uhhhh How you gonna kill your mama uh uhhh How you gonna kill your mama uh uhhh
