Scars

(Bm)This is for my mother from the (Dmaj7)older brother of your (D)children made (G)of three.

Now you (D)found your lover (G)'cause it wasn't our father who made (D)you laugh and (A)happy.

It's been a (Bm)long five years,

But we're (D)so much better (G)now,

the skies are clearer now, there's (D)no more (A)slamming doors.

Now I (Bm)say,

dear (A)Mother, how you've (G)come so (D)far.

(Bm)Your love has (A)fixed all of our (G)broken (D)(Bm)hearts.

I hope you're (A)proud, Mother, of (G)what you've (D)done.

It's a lifelong lesson and I'm (G)not pretending when I (A)say you cleared up my (Bm)scars.

(G)You cleared up my (D)scars.

(Bm)This is for my father from the (Dmaj7)older brother of your (D)children made (G)of three.

Yeah, you've (D)been so good to (G)us and showed n't us how to live and (D)taught us to (A)be free.

It's But when (Bm)Mother told you that she (Dmaj7)didn't love you,

all these (D)bridges hit (G)the sea.

So you (D)built another (G)one and helped us cross it,

even (D)though you were (A)in need.
