My Mom – Chocolate Genius


D, Dbm, Bm, A  x4

     D     Dbm     Bm        A
They got five televisions in a house built for three
    D       Dbm
Look upon that fake fireplace,
       Bm         A
you know the bucktoothed boy is me
     D      Dbm        Bm      A
See that wood paneled room? That's where I learned to drink
       D      Dbm      Bm     A   A
You see that hole in the wall? That was seagrams I think

A x2


     D      Dbm
And that tree was a goal post,
     Bm      A
that bathroom it was a shroud
    D       Dbm
That closet it was a phone booth,
     Bm       A
and that mirror it was a crowd
     D       Dbm
See that guy with the bad knees
    Bm      A
and his heart on his sleeve?
     D      Dbm
Watch him slip me ten dollars
     Bm       A    A
when it comes time to leave...


A x2

F#m x 4


      F#m F#m        Bm   Bm
It's been five years and some change
     F#m   F#m     Bm    Bm
and this world is gettin' so strange
     F#m   F#m       Bm   Bm
but this house smells just the same
    D    D     D      D
And my mom,
     D    D       D
My sweet mom,
      D     D    Dbm   Bm   A
She don't remember my name

  D     Dbm     Bm
My mom
       A    D    Dbm   Bm    A
She can't remember my name,
    D    Dbm    Bm    A
Not my mom


  D    Dbm         Bm        A
I sit on her bed, and I kiss her right behind the ear
     D     Dbm       Bm     A
she calls out for a dog that's been dead for a year
    D      Dbm       Bm    A
I say "How is it going?" just like I didn't know
  D          Dbm     Bm        A
I hold on to both of her hands too afraid to let her go
   D     Dbm    Bm      A
And five times exactly, no more and no less,
      D          Dbm
she says "How you been eatin', boy?"
      Bm    A
and I say "Ok, I guess"
    D       Dbm      Bm      A
In this room where she made me, each day she grows weak
     D       Dbm
She flips on the Golden Girls
        Bm       A   A
and the first tear hits my cheek
