Sister, Mother
guitar chords lyrics
Sister, Mother
By Sixpence None The Richer
I love this song! I couldn't find a good tab for it, so I tried to figure it out
Returning to the F# after each phrase of the chorus is optional. I like to play it that way,
I'm not sure that they actually do that on the recording.
F#* & E* are my way of pointing out that these two chords are played higher on the neck:
is on fret 9 (x91111119), and E* on fret 7 (x79997). (you could also just play the
F# and E if you want).
B G#m A
My life is plagued
B G#m A E
By mistakes, broken heart, slaps in the face
B G#m A
But I'm trying to care
E F# F#* E*
To dare to embrace your face
E F# G#m F#
Hug him like a brother
E F# G#m F#
Kiss her like a sister
E F# G#m F# E
Let it be my mother for now
B G#m A
I want to find
B G#m A E
Where the maid in the street is pouring her wine
B G#m A
I heard she takes you in
E F# F#* E*
And gives you the words you need said
E F# G#m F#
If you'll be her brother
E F# G#m F#
She'll kiss you like a sister
E F# G#m F# E
She'll even be your mother for now
B G#m A (4x)
E F# G#m F#
Hug him like a brother
E F# G#m F#
Kiss her like a sister
E F# G#m F#
Let it be my mother
E F# G#m F#
Let it be my father
E F# G#m F#
I will be her brother
E F# G#m F#
Kiss her like a sister
E F# G#m F# E
Come and be my mother forever
E F# G#m F#(4x) end on E
