[INTRO]
C Cadd9-C F (3x) C Cadd9-C
F
Oh, I am a girl, the forgettable face
C F
And no matter my colour, no matter my name
C F Csus4-F
At work there is a boy and he treats me well
C F C F
My old friends from high school, I see them around
C F
Well, August is here, I can't believe how fast
C F
Soon there will be winter and snow on the ground
Am F
Maybe by then I could get my own place
C F
Closer to the city, if that's okay
[CHORUS]
G Am
But Mama, can you hear me?
F C
As I dragged on my day's last cigarette
G Am
He pulled me so hard
F C
Off my very own back door steps
G Am
And he laid me in his garden
F C
All the years I've watched him tend
G Am
And he took me, Mama
F C
So I could never tell you about it
[INTERLUDE]
Am G F C
F
And inside of this moment there are things I wish I could know
C F
Like your ring size and my ring size and the hour I was born
Am F
And my dad's middle name and your favourite song
C F
Was your darkest day as dark as this one?
[CHORUS]
G Am
Mama, can you hear me?
F C
As I dragged on my day's last cigarette
G Am
He pulled me so hard
F C
Off my very own back door steps
G Am
And he laid me in his garden
F C
All the years I've watched him tend
G Am
And then he took me, Mama
F C
So I could never tell you about it
F C
Now I'm a girl who's face they'll never forget
[INTERLUDE]
Am G F
Oh ooh oh ohhh
Am G F
Oh ooh oh ohhh
Am G F
Oh ooh oh ohhh
