Am C G Am
I am my mother’s savage daughter
Am C G Am
The one who runs barefoot, cursing sharp stones
Am C G Am
I am my mother’s savage daughter
Am E G Am
I will not cut my hair, I will not lower my voice
Am C G Am
My mother’s child is a savage
Am C G Am
She looks for her omens in the colors of stones
Am C G Am
In the faces of cats, In the fall of feathers
Am E G Am
In the dancing of fire and the curve of old bones
Am C G Am
My mother’s child dances in darkness
Am C G Am
She sings heathen songs by the light of the moon
Am C G Am
And watches the stars, and renames the planets
Am E G Am
And dreams she can reach them with a song and a broom
Am C G Am
I am my mother’s savage daughter
Am C G Am
The one who runs barefoot, cursing sharp stones
Am C G Am
I am my mother’s savage daughter
Am E G Am
I will not cut my hair, I will not lower my voice
Am C G Am
My mother’s child is a savage
Am C G Am
She looks for her omens in the colors of stones
Am C G Am
In the faces of cats, In the fall of feathers
Am E G Am
In the dancing of fire and the curve of old bones
Am C G Am
My mother’s child curses too loud and too often
Am C G Am
My mother’s child laughs too hard and too long
Am C G Am
And howls at the moon and sleeps in ditches
Am E G Am
And clumsily raises her voice in this song
Am C G Am
I am my mother’s savage daughter
Am C G Am
The one who runs barefoot, cursing sharp stones
Am C G Am
I am my mother’s savage daughter
Am E G Am
I will not cut my hair, I will not lower my voice
Am C G Am
My mother’s child is a savage
Am C G Am
She looks for her omens in the colors of stones
Am C G Am
In the faces of cats, In the fall of feathers
Am E G Am
In the dancing of fire and the curve of old bones
