Mom, I know I let you down
E
And though you say the days are happy
F#
Why is the power off, and I'm fucked up?

And mom, I know he's not around
E
But don't you place the blame on me
F#
As you pour yourself another drink

verse 2
B
As we pulled off to go our separate paths, and
F#
I saw your headlights as I looked back
E
And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to thank you for being my Mom and my Dad
F#
So Mom, please accept this as a tribute I wrote this on the jet
G
I guess I had to get this off my chest
A
I hope I get the chance to lay it before I'm dead
B
The stewardess said to fasten my seatbelt, I guess we're crashing
F#
So if I'm not dreaming, I hope you this message
E
That I'll always love you from afar, cause you're my mama...

B
I want a new life
G#m
One without a cause
E
So I'm coming home tonight

Well no matter what the cost

And if the plane goes down
G#m
And if the crew can't wake me up
E
Just know that I was alright
F#7
And I was not afraid to die
B
Even if there's songs to sing
G#m
My children will carry me
E
Just know that I'm alright
F#7
I was not afraid to die
B
Because I put my faith in my new girl
G
So I never say goodbye cruel world
E
Just know that I'm alright

I am not afraid to die
