[Intro] Am7 G Am7 G Am7 G Em7 D Em7 D
      Am7                       G
I can live with the sky falling out from above

      Am7                       G
I can live with your scorn, your sourness, your smug

      Am7                       G
I can live growing old alone if push comes to shove

      Em7        D          Em7          D
But I can't live without my mother's love
Em7 D Em7 D
      Am7                     G
I can live flying round at an impossible pace

      Am7                                G
I can live with the bad etiquette that's falling on this place

      Am7                              G
I can live with anything you've got to throw in my face

      Em7        D          Em7            D
But I can't live without my mother's embrace
Em7 D Em7 D
   C      G         D
My mother is seventy-five

          Em7       D      Em7        D
She's the closest friend I have in my life

   C                   G              D
Take her from me, I'll break down and bawl

    Em7    D             Em7           D
And wither away like old leaves in the Fall

           Am7                      G
You can be cruel all you want, talk bad on my brothers

      Am7                  G
Shoot me full of holes and I won't be bothered

      Am7                   G
Judge me for my ways and my slew of ex-lovers

    Em7             D         Em7           D
But don't ever dare say a bad word about my mother
Em7 D Em7 D
           Am7                G
When she's gone I'll miss how slowly she walks

        Am7                             G
Playing scrabble with the chimes of the grandfather clock

     Am7           G
I'll even miss the times that we fought

    Em7         D          Em7     D
But mostly I'll miss being able to call her and talk.
Em7 D Em7 D
      Am7                       G
I can live without watching the classic old fights

      Am7                    G
I can live without a lover beside me at night

      Am7                         G
I can live without what you might call a charmed life

      Em7        D          Em7        D
But I can't live without my mother providing her light
Em7 D Em7 D
   C         G      D
My mother is seventy-five

    Em7           D          Em7     D
One day she won't be here to hear me cry

C        G             D
When the day comes for her to let go

         Em7        D     Em7         D
I'll die off like a lemon tree in the snow

C        G             D
When the day comes for her to leave

        Em7      D          Em7              D
I won't have the courage to sort through her things

C       G           D
With my sisters and all our memories

  Em7    D            Em7          D
I cannot bear all the pain it will bring
Em7 D Em7 D [Outro] Am7 G Am7 G Am7 G Em7 D Em7 D Em7 D Em7 D
