[Verse 1]
Em Mother don't Cworry
I killed the lastG snake that lived in the creekD bed
Em Mother don't Cworry
I've got some Gmoney I saved for the weekDend
Em Mother, rememCber being so Gstern
With that girl who was withD me?
Em Mother, rememCber the blink of an eye G
When I breathed through your Dbody?
[Chorus]
Em So may the sunCrise bring hope G
Where it once was forDgotten
Em Sons are like Cbirds
Flying upGwards over the mounDtain
[Verse 2]
Em Mother, I Cmade it up
From the bruiseG of a floor of this Dprison
Em Mother, I Clost it
All of the fearG of the Lord I was giDven
Em Mother forgetC me
Now that the creekG drank the cradle you sangD to
Em Mother forgiveC me
I sold your carG for the shoes that I gaveD you
[Chorus]
Em So may the sunCrise bring hope G
Where it once was forDgotten
Em Sons could be Cbirds
Taken broGken up to the mounDtain

[Verse 3]
Em Mother, don't Cworry
I've got a coatG and some friends on the corDner
Em Mother, don't Cworry
She's got a garGden we're planting togetDher
Em Mother, rememCber the night
That the dogG had her pups in the panDtry?
Em Blood on the floorC and the fleas on their paws G
And you cried 'til the morDning
[Chorus]
Em So may the sunCrise bring hope G
Where it once was forDgotten
Em Sons are like Cbirds
Flying alGways over the mounDtain
