I Am My Mother

| F      | F      | F      | F      |


[Verse 1]
F         A7    Dm    Dm/C   Bb
Dangerous dreams have been detected
F          Bb                F      F
 Streaming over the Southern border
   F         A7          Dm   Dm/C    Bb
As bad as it seems, it's worse than expected
F       Bb                F       F
Fleeing through the night corridor


[Chorus]
Am                 Bb
 Oh, I’ve done the math
        Dm  Dm/C    Bb
With a stick in the sand
Am                   Gm7         C      C
 I've kicked the can into a dead end
    Dm      Am
Oh, I can't mend
Bb           F
Every broken fence
      Bb            F           Bb     Bb
I’m a new man but I am still my mother


[Verse 2]
F                A7    Dm   Dm/C    Bb
 If it was up to me, I would have rejected
     F        Bb                   F      F
The idea that money could keep you poor
       F          A7          Dm   Dm/C    Bb
And as dark as it seems, it's worse than neglected
F                  Bb               F      F
 When you need the one who loves no more


[Chorus]
Am                 Bb
 Oh, I’ve done the math
        Dm  Dm/C    Bb
With a stick in the sand
Am                   Gm7         C      C
 I've kicked the can into a dead end
    Dm      Am
Oh, I can't mend
Bb           F
Every broken fence
      Bb            F           Bb     Bb      F
I’m a new man but I am still my mother
