Joe Walsh - Mother Says Chords

[Verse 1]
E              A
Mother says be careful
    E                  A
And don't stay out too long
E                   A
Don't do things you shouldn't
C                G
Miss me when I'm gone
 
[Verse 2]
E              A
Daddy says not now, son
           E               A
Well, just do the best you can
    E                   A
And you'll make out somehow, son
G              E   G           A G
Be just like I am, just like I am

[Verse 3]
E                A
You won't need a reason
E                 A
She don't let you choose
    E                   A
And so to make the game easy
C                G
Mother makes the rules
 
[Verse 4]
E                   A
We all know how the rules are
E                    A
Changin' from day to day
E                          A
That's the breaks, and I'm sorry
G                  E
Some of us must be going
G                  A
Some of us have to stay
G                 E
Some of us may be showing
E               G A G E G
Some just fade away

[Verse 5]
E                    A
It's sad to say it's the ending
E                A
All the feelin's gone
E                    A
If you don't mind pretending
        C         G
You can come along
    E                 A
And mother says she's ready
       E            A
And if you have the time
       E                  A
She'll help us all to get steady
G                E       G                A
Make us all feel better, make us all feel fine
G                E       G                A G E G
Make us all feel better, make us all feel fine
