Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
          C                                 Am
And as I climb into an empty bed - oh well, enough said
             F             G         F                         G

F                          G
Over and over.....

 Am                     F  G                F               G

I know it's over and it never really began but in my heart it was so real

And she even spoke to me and said

and kind - over and over....
