Tom: Am Am Bathed in the water she ran every morning Dm Smacked in the bed she turned down every night E I'm strong in food she prepared for me Am Now I'm all grown up Am Heating my hands on the very cold days Dm Drenched in the rain almost every school game E And in the middle of a scare, she's there Am To wake me up [Chorus] Am Dm I'm strong enough, I'm tough enough E Am slept enough, I'm crying my mother's tears Am Dm I'm well enough, I've read enough E Am Loved enough, I'm crying my mother's tears Am Dm twe dab dab twe dab dab twe dab dab twe Em Am twe dab dab twe dab twe dab dab [Verse 2] Am Treating my cuts with her own remedies Dm Combing my hair while she covered my knees E And sent me books I was forbidden to read Am Educating me Am I was there by her side when my grandmother died Dm Her weakness is strength, she's unable to cry E And lover's tears fell from father's eyes Am She was all cried out [Chorus] Am Dm I'm strong enough, I'm tough enough E Am slept enough, I'm crying my mother's tears Am Dm I'm well enough, I've read enough E Am I've loved enough, I'm crying my mother's tears Am Dm twe dab dab twe dab dab twe dab dab twe Em Am twe dab dab twe dab twe dab dab [Bridge] Am Dm Cause I'm doing my best E Am To keep her living the rest Am Dm Cause I'm doing my best E Am To keep her living the rest Am Dm Cause I'm doing my best E Am To keep her living the rest
