Florence + The Machine - Mother

^A Oh lord, won't you leave me^A Leave me on my knee^Fs? Cause I belong to the ground no^Gw And it belongs to thee^A And oh lord, won't you leave me^A Leave me just like this^F? Cause I belong to the ground no^Gw I want no more than this^A How I long for the autumn^A The sun keeps burning dee^Fp Every stone in this city^G keeps reminding me of ya ^A Can you protect me^A

The ^Flove I let in, it ^Gleft me so lost [Chorus]

^A Mother,^G make me^F Make me a ^Gbig tall tree ^A So I can^G shed my ^Fleaves and let it ^Gblow through me ^A Mother,^G make me^F Make me a ^Gbig grey cloud ^A So I can^G rain on ^Fyou things I can't say out ^Aloud ^{A F G}

^A All these couples are kissing^A And I can't stand the hea^Ft I lost my shoes and left the ^Gparty I wander in the street^A I put my feet into the fountain^A The statues all aslee^Fp No use wishing on the wa^Gter

^A Mother,^G make me^F Make me a ^Gbird of prey ^A So I can^G rise ab^Fove this, let it ^Gfall away ^A Mother,^G make me^F Make me a ^Gsong so sweet ^A Heaven^G trembles,^F fallen at our feet ^{A A F G}

^A Oh lord, won't you leave me^A Leave me on my knee^Fs? Cause I belong to the ground no^Gw And it belongs to thee^A And oh lord, won't you leave me^A Leave me just like this^F? Cause I belong to the ground no^Gw I want no more than this^A How I long for the autumn^A The sun keeps burning dee^Fp Every stone in this city^G keeps reminding me of ya ^A Can you protect me^A

The ^Flove I let in, it ^Gleft me so lost
