Motherland Christy Moore
[Em]Where in hell can you [D]go
F[C]ar from the things that you kn[G]ow
[C]Far from the sprawl of co[G]ncrete
That keeps crawling its w[D]ay
About a thousand miles a[Em] day
[Em]Take one last look beh[D]ind
Com[C]mit this to memory and m[G]ind
D[C]on't miss this wasteland, this te[G]rrible place
When you l[D]eave
keep your heart off your sl[Em]eeve
Chorus:
Motherl[G]and, cradle [D]me
Close my e[C]yes
Lullaby me to s[G]leep
Keep me s[C]afe
Lie with me [G]
Stay beside me
Don't [D]go
Don't you [Em]go
Verse:
Oh, my five and dime queen
Tell me what have you seen
The lust and the avarice
The bottomless, cavernous greed
Is that what you see?
Chorus:
Motherland cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go
Don't you go
Bridge:
It's your h[C]appiness
I want m[G]ost of all
And for t[C]hat I'd do a[A]nything at a[D]ll
Oh, mercy [D]me
If you want the b[C]est of love
Or the m[G]ost from life
If there's a[C]nything I c[A]an do at a[D]ll
Verse:
Now come on shot gun bride
What makes me envy your life
The faceless, the nameless
The innocent, the blameless
And free
What's it like to be?
Chorus:
Motherland, cradle me
Close my eyes
Lullaby me to sleep
Keep me safe
Lie with me
Stay beside me
Don't go
Don't you [Em]go
