C                                                Am7
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
F   G        C
   and as I climb into an empty bed
          Am7
oh well, enough said
F G          F              G
  I know itʼs over still I cling
F                          G         F      G F
I donʼt know where else I can go, mother

    C                                               Am7
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
F G         C
  see, the sea wants to take me

the knife wants to slit me
  Am
do you think you can help me?
F    G     C
Sad veiled bride, please be happy
                              Am7
handsome groom, give her room
F     G       C
loud, loutish lover, treat her kindly
                          Am7
although she needs you more than she loves you
F G             F              G
And I know itʼs over still I cling
F                          G
I donʼt know where else I can go
F                    G               F
itʼs over, itʼs over, itʼs over

            C
I know itʼs over
              F
and it never really began
G               F       G       Am
but in my heart it was so real
F        G                          F G
and you even spoke to me and said:

C                                               Am7         F G
"If youʼre so funny then why are you on your own tonight?

C                                                 Am7         F G
and if youʼre so clever then why are you on your own tonight?
C                                                        Am7         F G
if youʼre so very entertaining then why are you on your own tonight?
C                                                  Am7
if youʼre so very good looking why do you sleep alone tonight?

     F G        C
I know   cause tonight is just like any other night
                           Am7         F  G
thatʼs why youʼre on your own tonight
             C
with your triumphs and your charms
         Am7
while they are in each otherʼs arms"

F         G        F
Itʼs so easy to laugh
                  G
itʼs so easy to hate
             F                      G
it takes strength to be gentle and kind
F                G
itʼs over, over, over

F        G         F
Itʼs so easy to laugh
                  G
itʼs so easy to hate
         F                      G
it takes guts to be gentle and kind
F                G
itʼs over, over, over

         C           F   G
Love is natural and real
    F       G        Am
but not for you, my love
    F           G
not tonight my love
F G      C           F
love is natural and real
G    F              G            Em      F G
but not for such as you and I, my love

    C            F        G            F    G   Am  F G   F G
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
