C                        G
Mother, say a prayer for me

C                        G
I can never know what you've seen

C
I don't have what you have

                  G
I don't seek what you seek

But I'd never take it away

 Mother, pray for me

C/ G I don't know the tongue in which you dream
C/E                                           G
Somewhere in the middle, there's a pidgin that we speak

But is it enough?

Don't give up

We never let our colors bleed

But I would like to know you

And I want you to know me

Do we still have time?

C                      G
Mother, are you all at sea?

C                        G
Battered by the waves of grief

C
Are you lost without her?

                         G
Do you hope that we could meet?

    Am7       Am7/B     Am7/C
If I could be saved one day

I have done enough injury

C/E                                          G
I wanted to hurt you for the hurt you made in me

    Am7       Am7/B          Am7/C
And I know that I'm why you cried

        Am7/D      G   G   G   G
Mother, pray for me
[Bridge]
               G/F
Called off the search

                   G/E
For evidence of an after

            G/C         G/B
Decided I'm fine without

           G/A
Forever is this right now

                      G/F
But one day, if you arrive

               G/E
Just send me a small sign

                 G/C           G/B
I don't need the proof of place

                    G/A G/B   G/C G/D  G   G   G   G
Just tell me you've got there safe
[Verse V1]
C/E                        G
Mother, are you there? It's me

  C/E                    G
I know I didn't call last week

    C/E                                   G
The longer that I hold off, the heavier it seems

                Am7      Am7/B  Am7/C
And I never know what to say anyway

        Am7/D      G   G   G   G
Mother, pray for me
