G Ami G C D (2x)

G Ami G        C       D
Mama  they try and break me
G   Ami G     C      D
The window burns to light the way back home
G Ami G         C       D
Alight that warms no matter where they go
G Ami G             C        D
They're off to find the hero of the day
G AmiG      C                   D
But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way

G                Ami
Still the window burns
     G        C
Time so slowly turns
    D
And someone there is sighing
G              Ami
Keepers of the flames
          G         C
Can't you feel your name?
    D
Can you hear your babies crying?
G Ami G         C            D
Mama  they try and break me
G Ami G         C            D
Still they try and break me

Excuse me while I tend to how to feel
These things return to me that still seem real
Now deservingly this easy chair
But the rocking starts the wheels of despair

Don't want your hate
But the fist I've made
For years
can't hold or feel
No i'm not all me
So please excuse me while I tend to how I feel

Emi
But now the dreams
And waking screems
     D            Emi
That everlast the night
So build a wall
Behind it crawl
    D               Emi
And hide until it's light
                     D             Emi
So can you hear your babies crying now?

Still the window burns
Time so slowly turns
And someone there is sighing
Keepers of the flames
Can't you feel your name?
Can you hear your babies crying?

But now the dreams
And waking screems
That everlast the night
So build a wall
Behind it crawl
And hide until it's light
So can't you hear your babies crying now?

Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try
Mama they try
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try and break me
Mama they try
Mama they try
