AGF
Oh lord, won't you leave me, leave me on my knees
G
Cause I belong to the ground now
A
And it belongs to thee
GF
And oh lord, won't you leave me, leave me just like this
G
Cause I belong to the ground now
A
I want no more than this
GF
How I long for the older, the sun keeps burning deep
GA
Every stone in this city keeps reminding me, oh!
GF
Can you protect me from what I want?
G
The love I let in, it left me so lost
AG
Mother, make me
FDm
Make me a big tall tree
AGFDm
So I can shed my leaves and let it blow through me
AG
Mother, make me
FDm
Make me a big grey cloud
AGFGA
So I can rain on you things I can't say out loud
GFG (intro riff)
AGF
All these couples are kissing and I can't stand the heat
G
I lost my shoes and left the party
A
I wander in the street
GF
I put my feet into the fountain, the statues all asleep
G
No use wishing on the water
It grants you no relief
AG
Mother, make me
FDm
Make me a bird of prey
AGFDm
So I can rise above this, let it fall away
AG
Mother, make me
FDm
Make me a song so sweet
AGFA
Heaven trembles, fallen at our feet
