[Chorus]
G            C         G    Em             D/F#      G
Holy Mother, where are you, tonight I feel broken in two

G                        C        G    Em                 D/F#      G
I've seen the stars fall from the sky, Holy Mother, can't keep from crying
[Verse]
C              G               Em                     D/F#   G
Oh I need your help this time, to get me through this lonely night

C                    G            Em               D/F#
Tell me please which way to turn, to find myself a-gain
[Chorus]
G            C       G       Em             D/F#         G
Holy Mother, hear my prayer, somehow I know you're still there

G                   C        G     Em     D/F#     G
Send me please some peace of mind, take a-way this pain
[Bridge]
        Cadd9         Gmaj7         D9       G
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait any longer

        Cadd9         Gmaj7         Em       D/F#
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait for you
[Chorus]
G            C       G    Em                      D/F#     G
Holy Mother, hear my cry, I've cursed your name a thousand times

G                           C          G     Em              D/F#    G
I've felt the anger running through my soul, all I need is a hand to hold
[Verse]
C             G             Em           D/F#      G
Oh I feel the end has come, no longer my legs will run

C               G        Em              D/F#
You know how to wrap me, in your arms to-night
[Chorus]
G                C      G     Em                   D/F#   G
When my hands no longer play, my voice is still, I fade a-way

G            C         G   Em        C         D/F#    G
Holy Mother, then I'll be, lying in, safe with-in your arms
