[Intro]
DLook upon your mother and the Gsilver in her Dhair
Consider it a crown the Choliest may Dwear
DDDD
[Verse 1]
It ain’t Deasy raisin’ babies when they Cgrow like ragged Dweeds
It’s a miracle she carried any Cshred of sani-Dty
But she had her stories and forgot the glory of the Cmultitude of Dsaints
Her mother lived in her medicine and her Cabsent vanGity
[Chorus]
DLook upon your mother and the C5silver in her Dhair
Consider it a crown the C5holiest may Dwear
Behold the mark of wisdom, make C5it your daily Dprayer
To look upon your mother and the C5silver in her Dhair D
[Verse 2]
On the Dwestern side of the highway, near the Cfeet of TenneDssee
A woman like a pistol and C half my family D tree
When the circle grew by more than two, the Csawmill could not Dbuy
Everything you need with four mouths to feed, why you’re C barely gettin’ G by
[Chorus]
DLook upon your mother and the C5silver in her Dhair
Consider it a crown the C5holiest may Dwear
Behold the mark of wisdom, make C5it your daily Dprayer
To look upon your mother and the C5silver in her Dhair D
DDD
[Verse 3]
D Last night in my slumber came the C matriarchs I D miss, they said
Dear one be annointed with C aging’s lasting D kiss
They’re pulling out a token of the C life you fully D lived
This chord we share unbroken to C you we freely D give
[Bridge]
Awoken in the morning, C5arisen from my Dbed,
I found upon my pillow a C5single shining Dthread (two, three four)
[Chorus]
DLook upon your mother and the C5silver in her Dhair
Consider it a crown the C5holiest may Dwear
Behold the mark of wisdom, make C5it your daily Dprayer
To look upon your mother and the C5silver in her Ghair
Her Ghair
D DDDDDDD D
In her hair (riff)
