Mothers Day

Dave Hause


Tom: E

E
It was Mother's Day
B
When you came clean
C#m                          B             A
We let the car run under the overpass like when we were teens

[Verse 2]

E
You said it ground you down
B
You said you made a mess
C#m                                  B                  A
You said your world was grey and the kids were the only colour that was left

[Verse 3]

E
I think I spoke too soon
A
I always hate it when you cry
C#m                                  B                       A
I should have told you then what I'm writing now, it kept me up all night

[Chorus]

E
You're gonna be fine
B
Mother's Day comes and goes
C#m                         B
Summer will be here soon to chase the chill away
A
We'll chase regret out with the ghosts
E
You're gonna be fine
                      B
Give it some time and you'll see
                  C#m
You'll have these East Coast springs
B
Three headstrong kids
A                                 B
You'll have Jesus and you'll have me
E
You're gonna be fine

[Verse 4]

E
It was a parking lot
B
Near that South Carolina dive
C#m               B                             A
I came unglued, I freaked you out, let the bees out of the hive

[Verse 5]

E
I let it go too long
B
Long past the point of fun
C#m                              B
I hadn't gotten it all out of my system yet
           A
I said I'd move on, I was done

[Verse 6]

E
I think I spoke too soon
B
I always hate to make you cry
C#m                           B
Like on Mother's Day when you told me again
           A
Folks like us are never satisfied

[Chorus]

E
But we're gonna be fine
A
Just like you told me before
C#m                       B
Oh I can pick back up and get to work
         A
Or I can walk right out the door
E
But I'm gonna be fine
A
To Carolina to sea
C#m                            B
We'll have heads like hives on Mother's Day
             A             B
So thank you Jesus for the bees
E
We're gonna be fine
B
On Mother's day
C#m            B
Gonna be fine
A           B
On Mother's Day
E
I'm gonna be fine
