So Thankful

	  		

For my lolo, my lola 
My mammas, my pappas 

A 
Pappa didn’t DIE in VAIN 
    F#m                D 
His son carries on his name. 
A 
His face, his fire, his flame. 
    F#m                 D 
The way he talked.  The way he sang. 
A 
Mamma still feels the pain. 
    F#m               D 
She will not live in shame. 
A 
Of how her babies came. 
    F#m             D 
And who the hell to blame now. 

She says 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so thankful, oo so thankful.” 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so thankful, oo so thankful.” 
A 
Grandma used to cut herself raw. 
F#m                          D 
Not the hardest thing little mama’s eyes saw. 
A 
Said, drunk INDIANS fighting cops. 
F#m                      D 
Trafficking little girls around the block. 
        A 
I said “When the rape gonna stop?” 

She said 
F#m                    D 
“Not anytime soon baby that’s real talk.” 

Said 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so thankful, oo so thankful.” 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so thankful, oo so thankful.” 

A 
Mamma never said it’s okay 
    F#m             D 
For this old man to touch her this way. 
A 
Grandma, well, she got paid 
    F#m                      D 
And that’s one thing I’m not proud to say, 
A 
I never thought I’d give thanks for RAPE, 
    F#m              D 
But that’s how I got here today. 

Said 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so thankful, oo so thankful.” 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so thankful, oo so thankful.” 

A 
Got to give, got to give 
F#m                   D 
Got to give my momma  little kiss yeah 
A 
Got to give, got to give 
F#m                  D 
Got to give my momma little kiss yeah,

F#m                  D 
Got to give my momma little kiss, muah 

A…F#m…D…A…F#m…D 

A 
Pappa got SHOT in the HEAD 
   F#m           
HE got what was comin’ to him 
D 
Now he’s dead. 
A 
Child molester 36 years old. 
F#m                  D 
Left four kids and a wife in the cold 
A 
Great grandfather got shot in the back

Protecting Filipinos from the corporate attack 
A 
And great grandmother SHOT HERSELF in the MOUNT 
F#m                            D

A 
The pappa that raised me died of cancer 
      F#m                     D 
I was holding his hand as his spirit surrendered 
A 
Put a roof over my head, food in my belly 
F#m                  D 
He was a KING and a father to many 
A 
The mother that raised me is truly a QUEEN 
F#m 
Taught me how to love god 
              D 
And follow my dreams 

Said 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so grateful, oo so grateful.” 
A      F#m       Bm    D 
“oo so grateful, oo so grateful.”
