Chords for Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros - Mother (Live on KEXP)

[Abm] This is a song called Mother.
[Eb] _ [E] _ _ [A] _ I _ [Em] had written so many songs involving [Am] my father [D] that I [Abm] eventually sort [G] of
[Gb] felt [Abm] like I owed it to [Gb] my mother to [N] write a song and really sort of went for it and called it
Mother and everything.
[Db] _
_ _ _ _ Yeah, I think sometimes the easier relationships in life are the ones
that are easier also to sort of take for granted. _

[Gb] Let's _ _ hear that violin. _ _

[Abm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Abm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] I've been wandering feet to fight _ [Abm] and fight, though I did with father's guide over mere [Gb] constellation prizes.
_ _ It was [Abm] you and I after all, _ _ [Gb] quietly gone _ _ _ dreams. _
[Abm] _ [Ab] Steady like the ocean waving [Gb] endlessly.
Hello, _ _ well hello, [Abm] I'm doing good.
Mother, please be _ _
[Gb] pleased to know. _ _ _ _
[Abm] And oh, now that I knew it all, [Gb] all along, I _ was [Abm] just embarrassed _ _ at the infinite [Gb] imbalance. _ _ _ _ _
[Abm] And oh, _ deep within your endless [Gb]
heart, you give me love.
_ What more could [Abm] the sun ask _ but for
a few [Gb] more to shine? _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] Let me take you for granted _ [Bb] _ as the stone _ _ unmoved of [Gb] mountains, the ground
on which I stand, _ my feet to love and [Ab] love [Abm] from _ _ _ _
[Gb] your teaching.
Why empty [Abm] dreams?
_ I _ will [Gb] show you love. _ _ _ _
[Abm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Abm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Abm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Abm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] All right.
That was [N] stunning.
Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you all so much.
It's a real pleasure to have you here.
Thanks for having us.
And Edward Charp and the Magnetic Zeroes playing Marymoor Park on Saturday.
Tomorrow you'll be up in Vancouver and you're pretty much on the road for the foreseeable future, it sounds like.
No, we stop in October, late October, early November, yeah, and go to work on
finishing up this third album that got recorded accidentally.
Our good fortune.
Well, thanks again, everyone.
It's great to have you here.
Thank you so much.
You're listening to KEXP Seattle. _ _
