Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
B minorBm
This is for my mother
A augmentedA               D MajorD         G+G
From the older brother of your children, made of three
    B minorBm
Now you found your lover
A augmentedA                  D MajorD       G+G
Cause it wasn't our father who made you laugh and happy
      B minorBm
It's been a long five years
   A augmentedA                  D MajorD       G+G
I've cried a thousand tears, and here we are after the war
     B minorBm
But we're so much better
A augmentedA                   D MajorD        G+G
Now the skies are clearer, now there's no more slamming doors

Chorus:
Now, I say
B minorBm  A augmentedA         G+G    D MajorD
Dear Mother, how you've come so far
B minorBm      A augmentedA        G+G   D MajorD
Your love has fixed all of our broken hearts
B minorBm      A augmentedA        G+G      D MajorD
I hope you're proud, Mother, of what you've done
    B minorBm           A augmentedA           G+G
It's a lifelong lesson and I'm not pretending when I say
         B minorBm   A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
You cleared up my scars
         B minorBm   A augmentedA G+G B minorBm
You cleared up my scars

Verse 2:
B minorBm
This is for my father
A augmentedA               D MajorD        G+G
From the older brother of your children made of three
       B minorBm
Yeah, you've been so good to us
A augmentedA               D MajorD        G+G
And showed us how to live and taught us to be free
     B minorBm
But when Mother told you
A augmentedA                  D MajorD       G+G
That she didn't love you, all these bridges hit the sea
    B minorBm
So you built another one
A augmentedA              D MajorD        G+G
And helped us cross it, even though you were in need

Chorus:
Now, I say
B minorBm  A augmentedA         G+G    D MajorD
Dear Father, how you've come so far
B minorBm      A augmentedA        G+G   D MajorD
Your love has fixed all of our broken hearts
B minorBm      A augmentedA        G+G      D MajorD
I hope you're proud, Father, of what you've done
    B minorBm           A augmentedA          G+G
It's a lifelong lesson and I'm not pretending when I say
         B minorBm   A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
You cleared up my scars
         B minorBm   A augmentedA G+G B minorBm
You cleared up my scars
         B minorBm   A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
You cleared up my scars
         B minorBm   A augmentedA G+G B minorBm
You cleared up my scars
B minorBm  A augmentedA         G+G    D MajorD
Dear Mother, how you've come so far
B minorBm      A augmentedA        G+G   D MajorD
Your love has fixed all of our broken hearts
B minorBm      A augmentedA        G+G      D MajorD
I hope you're proud, Mother, of what you've done
   B minorBm           A augmentedA          G+G
It' s a lifelong lesson and I'm not pretending when I say
         B minorBm OR D MajorD
