Verse:
Em               B          G              C
It was not that long ago it first occurred to me
C                  Bm                  Am     D
That my mother was a person in her own right
    Em        B             G           C
And now I realize how very lucky I have been
C                      Bm              Am     A
And there, but for the grace of God, go I, go I


Chorus:
D            Am
Mother dear, she can see inside
C             G
Mother dear, and I've nowhere to hide
D            Am
Mother dear, did I spoil your plans?
C              G
Mother dear, I do the best I can


Verse:
Em              B         G           C
When I was a teenager, I really did believe
C               Bm          Am D
That my parents had adopted me
Em                    B            G
And the way I carried on they must have thought
                  C               G           Am
They'd brought the wrong little baby home from maternity
A
Well, I'd like to say I'm sorry but my


Chorus:
D            Am
Mother dear, she already knows
C             G
Mother dear, she'll never let me go
D            Am
Mother dear, kept me warm and safe
C              G
Mother dear, I'll never lose my faith in mother dear

D Am C G
D Am C G


Verse:
Em        B            G          C
If I ever get arrested by the C.I.A.
C                    Bm            Am    D
Because they take me for a foreign spy
Em                 B             G                C
They won't need no lie-detector, all they'll have to do
C        G                       Am
Is make me look into my mother's eyes
    F
And I'll tell them anything they like


Chorus:
D            Am
Mother dear, she can see inside
C             G
Mother dear, and I've nowhere to hide
D            Am
Mother dear, kept me warm and safe
C              G                                D  Am
Mother dear, I'll never lose my faith in mother dear
       C    G       D Am
Mother dear, mother dear
          C    G
My mother dear


Outro:
D            Am
Mother dear, did I spoil your plans?
C            G
