Verse
D G
She was the love of mine
A D Bm
And I held her hand in mine
E A G
She has the mercy like the rising of the sea
D G A
She opened my eyes to wonder
D Bm
In my wandering eyes I held her
E A Gadd9 C
In this moment her soul became a part of me
[Chorus]
A D
Mother of mine
G A
You are the light that always shines
Bm G Cadd9 A
Into the world you let me see
[Verse 2]
D G A
She was the love of mine and we
D Bm
We had the best of times
E
We watched the ships sail
A Gadd9 C
At the fading of the day
D G
She wore the color green
A D Bm
And she talked of the things she'd seen
E
Now only love remains
A Gadd9 C
When all has come and gone
[Chorus]
A D
Mother of mine
G A
You are the light that always shines
Bm G Gadd9 C
Into the world you let me see
A D
Mother of mine
G A
You are the light that always shines
Bm G Gadd9 C
Now I carry you as you carried me
[Outro]
D G
She was the love of mine
A D
And I held her hand in mine
