_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [A#] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[D] If I go to Washington, _ will I be my own?
Because if I go to Washington, _
_ [B] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [C#] who will be my [F#] _ _ [D] chaperone? _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
We always knew you were a winner. _
[G] _ [E] We saw it when [D] you _ smiled.
_ [G] _ Start [Gm] from the beginning, [A] when you were a beginner.
[B] _ [E] _ _
You [E] were a perfect _ [A] child.
[D] We always knew, we [D] always knew, you were a [C] champion.
Your [G] _ _ _ [E]
sadness [A] filled my [D] room.
_ _ [G] _
Dear, [Gm] if you should [A] feel my gloom, [B]
blame it [E] on me.
Blame it on your daddily [D] and mamily, because depression runs in our [Bm] family. _
I love [F#] _ _ you. _
Oh, _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [D] dear, _ [E] _ and [E] I swear it's [A] true.

[F#] And my dad [D] says,
_ I _ [C#m] love _ [F#] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ everything [E] about you, babe.
[A] And maybe it's true.
_ [F#] _
_ I love _ [Bm] _
you. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ [C#] How I found the [F#] spelling bee such fun.
[D] But _ _ you [Em] _ [G] didn't [F#] react.
_ [Bm] And you never [Em] asked me if [C#] I'd join you in [F#] the Bombay sun.
[Bm] [F#m] Mama, _ [D] _
I [G] had quietly _ [F#] packed.
When are [B] you returning?
_ [Gm] I know [D] we agreed.
[Am] Tell me what [B] you're learning.
[A#]
Ma, I [F#m] have, oh God, this need.
[F#] _
_ [Bm] I think [G] dad is angry, ma, [C#] and I do not know [F#] what to do.
[Bm] [A] Mama, mama, [D] mama.
_ _ [Em] Shanti, [G] shanti, [F#] and oh.
_ _ [Bm] I think he takes [Em] out on me [C#] what he wants to [F#] take out on you. _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Em] How I wish [G] you were, [F#] _ _ _
how [Em] I wish you [G] were [F#] home.
_ How I wish [G] you were, wish you _ [D] were home.
[D] _
_ _ _ How I _ [G] _
_ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ [D] wish [D] you were, how I wish you [G] were home.
[Gm] God, we love the way [A] you grew.
We wish you, [B] we [E] wish you were all in. _
_ _ [G] Please let me say it one time [Bm] louder.
I _ _ [F#] _ _ love you.
_ [D] _ I _ _ [C#m] _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ [G] _ _
love everything [D] about you, [E] dear.
_ [A] _
And maybe it's true.
[F#] _ _ I _ [Bm] _ _ love _ _ [F#] _
_ you.
I love [D] you, God.
_ [A] _
_ [C#m] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ [E] How to tell [E] you _ [A] _ _ it's true.
_ [F#]
I _ _ _ _ _ love you.
