Musical Key

Cowboy Junkies
 BmGF#Bm
My mother sang the sweetest melody
 GABmF#
although she never sang in a musical key.
 GA
I would hear her through the house.
 GF#
My name called out loud.
 BmGF#Bm
My mother sang the sweetest melody.
 GF#Bm
My mother's hands were always cool and soft.
 GABmF#
And like her eyes, they would caress with every touch.
 GA
She would listen to my chatter
 GF#
as if every word I spoke mattered.
 BmGF#Bm
She'd hold me close and whisper in my ear.
 ABm
She'd say, "girl, you are a part of me
 ABm
and I have made you strong.
 ABm
when you grow up and are on your own
 GF#Bm
remem- ber to win them with your song."

 BmGF#Bm
My father sang in perfect harmony.
 GABmF#
And though he never sang in a musical key
 GA
You could hear him when he'd enter the house
 GF#
the kiss he'd give my Ma.
 BmGF#Bm
My father sang in perfect harmony.

 GF#Bm
My father's words were always sure and clear
 GABmF#
and like his presence they would rid me of my fears.
 GA
And when I crawled up on his knees
 GF#
I was safe as I could be.
 BmGF#Bm
He'd hold me tight and whisper in my ear.

 ABm
He'd say, "girl, you are a part of me
 ABm
and I have made you strong
 ABm
when you grow up and are on your own
 GF#Bm
remem- ber to win them with your song."

 BmGF#Bm
My mother sang the sweetest melody,
 GF#Bm
although she never sang in a musical key.
