[Intro 1]
[G][Gsus4][G][Gsus4]
[G]The kitchen

[Verse 1]
[G]
smells like orange peels
Her stomach turns like [Gsus4]a spinning [G]wheel
Put the [C]baby down in her little seat
You [G]should rest now mama you should eat
[D]It ain't right you been [G]working all day
[C]All us kids getting in your way
So [Csus2]she goes [G]to bed as soon
as the kit[D]chen's clean
That don't mean a thing to you but
it [G]does to [Gsus4]me
[G][Gsus4]

[Verse 2]
[G]Well I don't know if this part is true
How memories lie sometimes they do
But I [C]can see her in our living room
[Csus2]With a smile o[G]n her face
as she's dancing to
[D]Judy Garland, Carnegie[G] Hall,
[C]Sunday [G]April [Csus2]23rd
[G]She said her cousin had a balcon[D]y seat
And that don't mean a thing to
you but [G]it does to me
[Em]

[Verse 3]
Oh Lord,
am [G]I g[D]ood e[Dsus4]nough[D][Em]
When this world spins [D]as hard as it does
[G]And we bot[C]h know how it
shakes some [G]people [D]up
So how did [C]you decide to give
me so [G]much love

[Verse 4]
[G]
Well, she never said a word to me
About dying, about how she'd leave
In [C]all her pain she would never cry
[Csus2]Me and my[G] best friend Tina
would ride our [D]bikes
From Lelland Road up Daily Drive
We [G]took [C]a paper route
one summer [G]time
[Csus2]Tina's mo[G]m said I was
part of the fam[D]ily
And that don't mean a thing
to you but [G]it does to me
[Em]

[Verse 5]
Oh Lord, am [G]I g[D]ood e[Em]nough
When this world spins [D]as hard as it does
[G]And we both kno[C]w how it shakes
some [G]people [D]up
So [G]how did [C]you decide to
give me so [G]much love,
[D]Love love, so much [C]love,
[Csus2]so much l[G]ove[D][G]
[D]Love love, you give [G]me so [C]much love,
so [G]much love

[Verse 6]
[G]
No one's had a bigger say
In who I am today
And I [C]swear I've tried to
be worthy of
[G]The name they gave me when I was young
But [D]I ain't that pretty, I ain't that brave
[G]My kid[C]s have seen me cry
[G]They should have given her
name to my sister Mar[D]ie
And that don't mean a thing to you,
That don't mean a thing [C]to you
But it [G]does to me

[Outro 1]
