[Strophe]
        C 
She'll take you in, feed your friends 
    G 
Her open arms are welcoming 
       Am                                   F 
She'll rub your back all night when you're crying  
        C 
She'll listen to you tell your story 
 G 
Hold your fear and all your worries 
 Am                                       F 
Help you find the truth when they're all lying 
Am              G                   F 
Even when it's hopeless, she keeps trying
[Refrain]
            C 
She's your mother, you love her 
       G                Am                            F 
There won't be another place like her again you call home  
     C                                G 
She stands here to help you, there's nothing she won't do 
    Am                               F 
As long as she's alive, you're not alone,  
                F 
You've got each other 
             C 
That's your mother

[Strophe]
     C 
She fixes all the broken things 
      G 
When you're in love, she's got a ring 
    Am                                  F 
To give to you, she hopes you'll give away  
     C 
She don't care who you give it to 
  G 
Where they're from, if they pray like you 
    Am                                  F 
As long as they are good to you, that's enough  
 Am               G                     F 
First thing she taught you was love is love
[Refrain]
            C 
She's your mother, you love her 
       G                Am                                 F 
There won't be another place like her again that you call home  
      C                               G 
She stands here to help you, there's nothing she won't do 
   Am                                F 
As long as she's alive, you're not alone,  
                F 
You've got each other 
                 C 
And that's your mother

[Pont]
          Em                      Am 
When you fail her, when you're afraid 
     F                                  G 
And crying in the careless mess you've made  
                 Em                      Am 
She'll make you clean it up yourself and offer you a little help 
     F                            G 
And dry your weary eyes when you let her  
             F 
But she'll look at you and know you can do better
[Refrain]
            C 
She's your mother, you love her 
       G                Am                                 F 
There won't be another place like her again that you call home  
      C                               G 
She stands here to help you, there's nothing she won't do 
    Am                               F 
As long as she's alive, you're not alone  
         Am               G                  F 
And the secrets in your heart she's always known
[Outro]
         C 
She's a beacon, a harbour 
   G 
A lighthouse, her armour 
   Am                              F 
A promise and a blanket when it's colder 
       Am             G                F 
You'll understand it more when you get older  
                F 
You've got each other 
                 C 
And that's your mother
