The Day I Left the Womb Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Em][C][Em]

[Verse 1]
[C]Mother,
where are you today?
[Em]You took a piece of me the day
[G]you went [Em]away[C]
No recollections,
or the smell of your [Em]perfume
I took a piece of you the day
I left [G]the womb
[Em](The day [C]I left

[Verse 2]
[Em]the [C]womb)

[Verse 3]
Brother, [C]put your needles [Em]down
The best thing for you is to leave
[G]this awful [Em]town[C]
Pretty soon, you'll have kids to [Em]feed
If you see mother, [D]tell her I can sing

[Verse 4]
Please don't [Em]worry, I am doing fine
[G]You're much too busy,
to even find the time
[C]So use your chemicals and
take this to your [D]grave
The boys you left are men you didn't

[Interlude 1]
raise
[D][Em][C][Em][C][Em]

[Verse 5]
And [C]Daddy, how are you [Em]today?
You must be proud of the
boys [G]that you have raised
[C]Your withered heart and
everything it's seen
[Em]Your cuts and callused hands
[D]you had kids to feed

[Verse 6]
[D]You had kids to feed

[Verse 7]
Please don't [Em]worry, I am doing [D]fine
You're much too busy,
to even find the [C]time
So use your chemicals and
take this to your [D]grave
The boys you left are men you didn't raise
[C]
