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

Bm A
When I think of her voice I think of a siren

Constantly sounding after pulling the alarm

G
I’ll never get back the time I spent putting her first
Bm A
When I think of my mother I'm often in tears

'Cause she is the reason for all of my fears
Bm A G
Mommy
Bm A G
Why don’t you want me
Bm A G
Why don't you want me
Bm A G
Mommy
[Em]
