[Intro]

[Verse 1]

C#m

Hey Mom, Dead Mom

F#m D

I need a little help here

A E

I'm prob'ly talking to myself here

G D

But Dead Mom I gotta ask

F#m D

Are you really in the ground?

F#m D

Cause I feel you all around me

A E

Are you here, Dead Mom?

D

Dead Mom

[Verse 2]

A

Dead Mom

C#m F#m D

I'm tired of trying to iron out my creases

A E

I'm a bunch of broken pieces

G D

It was you who made me whole

F#m D

Every day Dad's staring at me

F#m D

Like all "hurry up get happy

A

Move along

N.C. D

Forget about your mom"

[Chorus]

D

Cause Daddy's in denial

F#m F#m9 F#m F#m9

Daddy doesn't wanna feel

He wants me to smile

F#m F#m9 F#m F#m9

And clap like a performing seal

Ignored it for a while

B

But Daddy's lost his mind for real

D E A

You won't believe the mess that we've become

[Bridge]

Em

You're my home

D

My destination

C

And I'm your clone

Am

Your strange creation

Em

You held my hand

D

And life came easy

C

Now jokes don't land

Am

And no one sees me

Em

Nothing seems to fit

D

Mamma is this it?

Are you receiving?

D#

I want something to believe in

C#

Or I'm done

[Chorus]

Fm9 Fm Fm9 Fm

Take me where my soul can run

C#

Or I'll be in my bedroom

Fm9 Fm Fm9 Fm

Wake me when I'm twenty-one

Daddy's moving forward

A#

Daddy didn't lose a mom

C# D#

Mamma won't you send a sign?

Fm G#

I'm running out of hope and time

C# D#

A plague of mice, a lightning strike

Fm A#

Or drop a nuclear bomb

C# D#

No more playing Daddy's game

Fm D# G#

I'll go insane if things don't change

C# D#

Whatever it takes to make him say your name

Dead Mom
