[F#m E C]
[Verse]
F#m E D
She said that we don’t have to hug
F#m E D
She said that I don’t have to love
F#m E D
And when she took my wrist and pushed me 'gainst the wall
F#m E D
The look on her face made me afraid of who she was
[Pre-chorus]
F#m E D
And it's all okay 'cause it's all in my head
F#m E D
And it's all my fault that my tears have stained the bed
[Chorus]
F#m
When I think of my mother
E D
I think of a guard holding me captive but not in her arms
F#m E
When I think of her voice I think of a siren
D
Constantly sounding after pulling the alarm
F#m E
I'm anxious and broken because of her words
D
I’ll never get back the time I spent putting her first
F#m E
When I think of my mother I'm often in tears
D
'Cause she is the reason for all of my fears
F#m E D
Mommy
F#m E D
Why don’t you want me
[Verse]
F#m E D
How does it feel to be alone
F#m E D
To call and to text once every year to ask me home
F#m E D
Do you ever hurt to cry or care I'm not around
F#m E D
Do you not regret the little contact we have now
[Pre-chorus]
F#m E D
And it's all okay 'cause it's all in my head
F#m E D
And it's all my fault that my tears have stained the bed
[Chorus]
F#m
When I think of my mother
E D
I think of a guard holding me captive but not in her arms
F#m E
When I think of her voice I think of a siren
D
Constantly sounding after pulling the alarm
F#m E
I'm anxious and broken because of her words
D
I’ll never get back the time I spent putting her first
F#m E
When I think of my mother I'm often in tears
D
'Cause she is the reason for all of my fears
F#m E D
Mommy
F#m E D
Why don’t you want me
F#m E D
Why don't you want me
F#m E D
Mommy
