I Don't Want to Be Your Mother Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I don't want to be your mother
There's two sides to each other
You gotta [F]meet me halfway
Won't you [F#dim]let me be[D] your lover[F#dim]

[Verse 2]
Don't [Dm]be no lone survivor
I'm not [G]go ing anywhere
I'm just [Em]trying to tell you
how I feel
This one-sided [A]love love affair

[Verse 3]
How [Dm]do I get the man in your to se[Bb]e
I'm so much [C]more than the [E]mother
in [Am]me[Em][Am][Em][Am][F]
I don't [C]want to be your savior
Forgive your bad behavior

[Verse 4]
You gotta [F]meet me halfway
'Cause there's [F#dim]so
much to discover
Don't [Dm]be no lone survivor
I won't [G]leave you in the cold

[Verse 5]
[Em]I'll be standing right beside you
when you're feel[A]ing all alone
The [Dm]only way to set yourself [Bb]free
Is letting [C]go of the [E]savior in [Am]me[A]

[Verse 6]
[Dm]Baby don't you [G]shut me out
[C]Baby don't shut [F]down on me
[Em]I'm not going [Am]anywhere
[Em]I'm not going [Am]anywhere

[Verse 7]
I [Gm]only want to [C]bring you back [Am]to
[Em]me[Am][Em][Am][F]
[Dm]Baby please don't [G]shut me down
[C]Time won't bring me [F]back to you
[Em]I'd be lying t[Am]o myself,
[Em]I'd be lying t[Am]o myself

[Verse 8]
[Gm]That's the only [C]thing I cannot
[F]do[F#dim][C][Am][G]
I [C]want to be your sweetheart
I want to be your lady
Oh I [F]want to get swept away

[Verse 9]
Let [F#dim]me cry for a change
Don't [Dm]need no lone survivor
I need [G]someone by my side
We don't [Em]have to make it perfect
Oh but [A]maybe we could try

[Verse 10]
[Dm]Love me for the woman that [Bb]I am
And I will [C]love you for
[Abdim]being just a m[Am]an[A]
[Dm]Love me for the woman that [Bb]I am
And I will [C]love you for being my man
