G  C  G  C
 
G          C      G
This is to mother you
   C       G       C       G
To comfort you and get you through
                  C                  G
Through when your nights are lonely
                  C               G
Through when your dreams are only blue
     D            G  C  G  C
This is to mother you
 
G          C       G
This is to be with you
   C        G      C        G
To hold you and to kiss you too
             C              G
For when you need me I will do
              C             G
What your own mother didn't do
      D            G  C  G  C
Which is to mother you

G                 C        G
All the pain that you have known
C       G        D       G
All the violence in your soul
G                      C        G
All the 'wrong' things you have done
C      G             D      G
I will take from you when I come
 
G                 C     G
All mistakes made in distress
C   G       D    G
All your unhappiness
G                C       G
I will take away with my kiss, yes
C      G        D     G
I will give you tenderness
 
Chorus :
G                 C         G         C
For child I am so glad I've found you
            G         C            G         C
Although my arms have always been around you
      G                 C       G       C
Sweet bird although you did not see me
      D
I saw you

To comfort you and get you through

Through when your nights are lonely

Through when your dreams are only blue

This is to mother you
