[Verse 1]
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
You gave me a drawer in your kitchen
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
You gave me the room with a view of the yard
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
Whatever the hurt, you knew right where to kiss it
Csus2 D5
You gave me the best of your heart
[Verse 2]
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
And you carried my rocks in your pocket
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
Flowers and feathers and butterfly wings
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
You had an answer for all of my questions
Csus2 D5
You showed me wonderful things
[Chorus]
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I know that it hasn’t been easy
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I hope that I love like you do
Csus2 D/F# Em7 G5
‘Cause I know that this world would be better
Csus2 D5
If everyone had a mother like you
G Em7 Cadd9 D/F#
G Em7 Cadd9 D/F#
[Verse 3]
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
You make the best macaroni
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
We never cared that it came from a box
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
The mom in the stands always clapping her hands
Csus2 D5
Started cheering and still haven’t stopped
[Verse 4]
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
And you held me when I came home crying
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
‘Cause someone said something that just wasn’t true
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I always said that Janelle was my best friend
Csus2 D5
But really it’s always been you
[Chorus]
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I know that I haven’t been easy
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I hope that I love like you do
Csus2 D/F# Em7 G5
‘Cause I know that this world would be better
Csus2 D5
If everyone had a mother like you
G Em7 Cadd9 D/F#
Mother like you
G Em7 Cadd9 D/F#
Csus2 D/F# Em7 G5
Csus2 D5
[Verse 5]
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
Our second was born in September
G Em7 Csus2 D/F#
I still can’t believe I have kids of my own
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I look in their eyes and I can’t help but wonder
Csus2 D5
Who will they be when they’re grown?
[Chorus]
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I know it won’t always be easy
Csus2 D/F# G5 Em7
I hope I can love like you do
Csus2 D/F# Em7 G5
‘Cause I know that my kids will be better
Csus2 D/F# Em7 G5
If they have a mother like you
Csus2 D/F# Em7 G5
If I am a mother like you
Csus2 D/F#
‘Cause I had a mother like you
G Em7 Cadd9 D/F#
G Em7 Cadd9 D G
