 Verse
 Em C G D*
 mother don't worry, i killed the last snake that lived in the creek bed
 mother don't worry, i've got some money i save for the weekend
 mother remember being so stern with that girl who was with me?
 mother remember the blink of an eye when i breathed through your body?
 
 Chorus
 Em          C              G                     D       
 so may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
 sons are like birds flying upward over the mountain
 
 Verse
 Em               C                 G                    D    
 mother i made it up from the bruise of a floor of this prison
 mother i lost it, all of the fear of the Lord i was given
 mother forget me now that the creek drank the cradle you sang to
 mother forgive me, i sold your car for the shoes that i gave you
 
 Chorus
 Em          C             G                    D         
 so may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
 sons are like birds flying upward over the mountain

 mother don't worry, i've got a coat & some friends on the corner
 mother don't worry, she's got a garden we're planting together
 mother remember the night that the dog had her pups in the pantry?
 blood on the floor & the fleas on their paws
 and you cried 'til the morning
 
 Chorus
 Em               C                     G                 D 
 so may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
 sons are like birds flying upward over the mountain
