GA black and white photograph
of Bmme up the garden path
Gwrapped up in my football scarf
it Bmsits here in my hand
Gand there mother smothered me
and Bmhow she would mother me
she Gknew how to suffer me
like Bmall mothers can
FNow she is Ceverywhere
the Amcomb that runs through Gmy hair
Ebmy posture Cmon a chair
but Gthat's not who I am
GBmGBm
GHe ran from the arguments
and Bmsat on the garden fence
and Glived in the passing tense
that Bmfell from her lips
Ghe tended the house so well
and Bmeach time she rang his bell
he'd Gclimb back from where he fell
and Bmgathered his wits
FNow I fear the Cmold is mine
a Amvibration Gshakes my spine
Ebas I walk the Cmcrooked line
reGality hits
So let me walk Efree from youG C A
I know that you Ewant me to G C A
let me try Esomething new G C A
let me walk aBbway
BbIf it's not one thing it's your mother
Fhow I love her Chow I love her
Chow I love her
Bbbut it's not so easy to say
Fplease won't you let me walk away
let me Cwalk away let me Awalk away

AC#mEmBmAC#mEmBm
ASo let me walk on my own
and C#mfinish my ice cream cone
if Emwe are to make it home
then Bmall will be well
Alook see I'm a father now
I'm C#mraising my own eyebrow
and Embeing in my own row
and Bmmaking life hell
FThis is me see Chere I am
Amdoing the best Gthat I can
Ebthis life has a Cmsubtle plan
but Gyou couldn't tell
