[Am] My mother loved it so she said, _ satite curve and drop lips, _ [F] _ glancing kiss through right
of man, skulk hushed and frailing hips. _
[Am] Her old eyes skim and creasing lips, with tear
falls as she describes, _
_ [F] _ approaching death with a yearning heart, with pride and no fear
no _ _ despise.
[C] Heart just flow as she recons [Am] the faint red word is open, _ [F] give me peace
for heart and soul, don't go away heart broken though.
[C] Heart just flow as she recons [Am] the
faint red word is open, _ [G] give me peace for heart and [G] soul, [F] don't go away heart broken
though.

Just [Am] wise out tones no velvet lies, _ crush her velvet _ call, [F] oh molly suffer all
the fools who write you on the wall.
[Am] And hold your tongue about your life, or dead hells
will change the plot, _ will [F] make your loving sound like snakes, like you were never hot. _
_ [C] Heart just flow as she recons [Am] the faint red word is open, _ [F] give me peace for heart and
soul, don't go away heart broken though.

_ [Am] Murder locked lips so she said, _ sad eyed girl in drop lips yet, [F] _ glassing kiss to right a
man, slow clutched unfrailing thimps yet.
