[Verse 1]
---------------------
Em             C
  Mother don't worry
                 G                             D
I killed the last snake that lived in the creek bed
Em             C
  Mother don't worry
              G                         D
I've got some money I saved for the weekend
Em             C            G
  Mother, remember being so stern
                           D
With that girl who was with me?
Em             C                      G
  Mother, remember the blink of an eye
                             D
When I breathed through your body?

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Em              C              G
  So may the sunrise bring hope
                     D
Where it once was forgotten
Em              C
  Sons are like birds
         G                  D
Flying upwards over the mountain

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Em          C
  Mother, I made it up
               G                   D
From the bruise of a floor of this prison
Em          C
  Mother, I lost it
               G                    D
All of the fear of the Lord I was given
Em             C
  Mother forget me
                  G                         D
Now that the creek drank the cradle you sang to
Em              C
  Mother forgive me
               G                         D
I sold your car for the shoes that I gave you

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Em              C              G
  So may the sunrise bring hope
                     D
Where it once was forgotten
Em              C
  Sons could be birds
         G                 D
Taken broken up to the mountain

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Em              C
  Mother, don't worry
               G                           D
I've got a coat and some friends on the corner
Em              C
  Mother, don't worry
               G                       D
She's got a garden we're planting together
Em             C
  Mother, remember the night
            G                       D
That the dog had her pups in the pantry?
Em                  C                           G
  Blood on the floor and the fleas on their paws
                          D
And you cried 'til the morning

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Em              C              G
  So may the sunrise bring hope
                     D
Where it once was forgotten
Em              C
  Sons are like birds
         G                 D
Flying always over the mountain
