G 
A black and white photograph 
   Bm 
of me up the garden path  
G 
wrapped up in my football scarf  
   Bm 
it sits here in my hand 
G 
and there mother smothered me 
    Bm 
and how she would mother me 
    G 
she knew how to suffer me  
     Bm 
like all mothers can 
F          C 
Now she is everywhere 
    Am                     G# 
the comb that runs through my hair 
Eb         Cm 
my posture on a chair 
    G 
but that's not who I am 
 
G Bm G Bm 
 
G 
He ran from the arguments 
    Bm 
and sat on the garden fence 
    G 
and lived in the passing tense 
     Bm 
that fell from her lips 
G 
he tended the house so well 
    Bm 
and each time she rang his bell 
     G 
he'd climb back from where he fell 
    Bm 
and gathered his wits 
F              C 
Now I fear the mold is mine 
  Am        G# 
a vibration shakes my spine 
Eb            Cm 
as I walk the crooked line 
  G 
reality hits 
 
CHORUS 
               E            G C A 
So let me walk free from you 
                E          G C A              
I know that you want me to 
           E             G C A 
let me try something new 
             Bb 
let me walk away 
Bb    
If it's not one thing it's your mother 
F              C 
how I love her how I love her 
C 
how I love her 
Bb 
but it's not so easy to say 
F             
please won't you let me walk away 
       C                A 
let me walk away let me walk away 
 
INSTRUMENTAL   
A C#m Em Bm  A C#m Em Bm 
 
A 
So let me walk on my own 
    C#m 
and finish my ice cream cone 
   Em 
if we are to make it home 
     Bm 
then all will be well 
A 
look see I'm a father now 
    C#m 
I'm raising my own eyebrow  
    Em 
and being in my own row 
    Bm 
and making life hell 
F              C 
This is me see here I am 
Am             G# 
doing the best that I can 
Eb              Cm 
this life has a subtle plan 
    G 
but you couldn't tell 
 
REPEAT CHORUS
