verse 1
Am  
Now the dirt is washed away
                     D  
And all alibis are out
                                                                                                          Am  
And the hands that used to heal me only curse me now.
                                                                  D  
The echoes of a woman so kind
                                                                                                             Am  
Rain like waterfalls and ice-cream on my worried mind.
                                                                             D  
I lay there in the puddle of myself
                                                                                                        Am  
Fishing for a brand new wish from that bucket down the well.
                                                                             D  
And in her colours I find my faith,
                                                                                                     Am  
Cause I remember every word that lady used to say.
                        E                                                         Dm  
She said hearts can't break themselves
                                Am  
Looking for something, leaving with nothing
          E                                              Dm  
But souls can save themselves
                                  Am                    G                      Am         D  
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
D                                                                                      Am  
Be a long way home without you
It's such a long way home without you.
D                        Am  
Yeah, yeah.
verse 2
Am  
Miss my mother, like no other,
                     D  
Made me human, made me brother
                                                                                                                             Am  
Hands would swell and they would blister for my sake and my sisters
                                                                                          D  
The guardian of my karma, keep my feet on terra firma
                                                                                                          Am  
And then release me like a scion to the sky!
                                     E                                                         Dm  
She said that hearts can't break themselves
                                        Am  
Looking for something, leaving with nothing
          E                                              Dm  
But souls can save themselves
                                Am                      G                         Am  D  Am  
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
Am                                              D                          Am  
This heart can tell sometime
verse 3
Am  
Sister, you have some hungry eyes
D  
Can bite back you're hypnotized
Smiling faces in disguise
Am  
Can bite back you're hypnotized.
Keep going against the grain
D  
And soon that's all, soon that's all you'll know
                                          Am  
And soon that's all you'll know
And let's get this straight
                                                                                             D  
Sometimes you'll rise, and there's times you'll fall
After all, you're just blood and bones
                                     Am  
And you don't owe no one nothing
No, you don't owe no one
                                     D  
So don't live like one price is right,
                                                                                                                                          Am  
Cause there's some things in your life that you can fight!
                                     E                                                      Dm  
She said that hearts can't break themselves
                                Am  
Looking for something, wind up with nothing
          E                                            Dm  
But souls can save themselves
                                Am                      G                         Am  D  
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
D                    Am  
Of mine.
