                             C
I've lost count of all the days
                              G    Am
I've been watching you forget
                      C
I felt tangled up and hopeless

But it hasn't killed me yet

That it's hard to be a mother to my mother

But it's like you always said
          Am                          C
That it's hard to be a mother to my mother
         G
But it's like you always said

A long goodbye
   G      F
Is like a breath

              Am
You've got to wrap yourself inside

All the goodness that you've had

Wrap yourself inside

All the goodness that you've had

                                 C
I've seen you standing in a room
                        G            Am
Wondering what's inside your head
                   C
In a moment that existed in a time
            G            F    Am
That's long been spent

Verse:
                          C
I'm gonna wrap my arms around the days
              G
That you and I have left
            Am                          C
'Cause it's hard to be a mother to my mother
         G                 F
But it's like you always said
          Am                          C
That it's hard to be a mother to my mother
         G
But it's like you always said

Chorus:
       Am       C
It's a long goodbye
   G        F
It ain't so bad
  Am       C
A long goodbye

Is like a breath
