[Verse 1]
    C
You don’t deserve the title of mom

  G6
I know I should love you but it just feels wrong

    E7
You used to be my favourite but you’ve lost that spot

  Fm
I like my brother more than you, and that says a lot

    C
Our bridges are burning faster than the Notre Dame fire

G6
Hugging you is like hugging the sharpest barbed wire

      E7
And I know that you’re my mom, and I know that I’m your son

    Fm
But if and when I lose my battle, know that you’ve won
[Chorus 1]
C
Throw me on the battlefield and pierce my heart

       G6
With a poison-dipped arrow, give me a head start

      E7
To my cold, dark grave, where I belong,

       Fm
‘Cause all of that’s better than being your blood

[Verse 2]
  C
I miss being your baby girl who loved to dance and sing and twirl

    G6
Who stayed up late at night so you could put her hair in curls

    E7
And painted her nails pink and purple with you every weekend

     Fm
It’s sad how as soon as I came out, you put it to an end

C
You were never there for me, you never even cared

    G6
You didn’t give a shit about me, all you’d ask is “where’d

   E7
My little baby girl go, what’d you do to her?”

       Fm
And to that, I say I killed her and I kicked her to curb
[Chorus 2]
C
Throw me on the battlefield and pierce my heart

       G6
With a poison-dipped arrow, give me a head start

      E7
To my cold, dark grave, where I belong,

       Fm
‘Cause all of that’s better than being your blood

C
Fuck me over one more time, I don’t even care

G6
I’ll just cry and sing this song and rip out my hair

E7
Are you happy with what you’ve turned me into ?
Fm [Outro]
C*
Mom

        G6*
Are you proud of me ?

  E7*
I got an A on my last math test

              Fm*
I hope you’re proud of me

C*
Mom

        G6* 
Are you proud of me ?

  E7*
I made it to one month sober

              Fm* 
I hope you’re proud of me
