Dead Mom
    Bbm                Ebm         B
I'm tired of trying to iron out my creases

It was you who made me whole

Every day Dad's staring at me

B
He wants me to smile
                           Ebm Ebm9 Ebm Ebm9
And clap like a performing seal
Db
Ignored it for a while

But Daddy's lost his mind for real
    B                 Db                 Gb

Bridge: B

          Dbm
You're my home
        B
My destination
             A
And I'm your clone
             Gbm
Your strange creation
            Dbm
You held my hand
              B
And life came easy
                A
Now jokes don't land
           Gbm
And no one sees me
                 Dbm
Nothing seems to fit
              B
Mamma is this it?

Are you receiving?
                    C
I want something to believe in
       Bb
Or I'm done

Chorus:
                          Dm9 Dm Dm9 Dm
Take me where my soul can run
   Bb
Or I'll be in my bedroom
                        Dm9 Dm Dm9 Dm
Wake me when I'm twenty-one
C
Daddy's moving forward
                    G
Daddy didn't lose a mom

Bb              C
Mamma won't you send a sign?
Dm                 F
I'm running out of hope and time
Bb                  C
A plague of mice, a lightning strike
Dm                G
Or drop a nuclear bomb
Bb              C
No more playing Daddy's game
     Dm   C      F
I'll go insane if things don't change
            Bb                C
Whatever it takes to make him say your name
F
Dead Mom
