G      Cadd9 
 Dear Mother  
      Am             D 
I'm a seven year old boy 
G              Cadd9  
 You're my superhero  
          Am              D 
And superheroes don't get hurt 
  
G      Cadd9 
 Dear Mother 
       Am              D 
I have trouble in high school 
G               Cadd9  
 I've really messed up this time 
    Am                 D                
It's something I can't get through 
  
G      Cadd9 
 Dear Mother 
         Am               D  
You say nothing's set in stone 
G            Cadd9          Am              D 
 You have to conquer every mountain on your own 
G             Cadd9  
 And when the road is tough 
Am              D  
Stop and have a break  
G          Cadd9           Am     D        G      
 And carry on when you are strong enough again

 Dear Mother  
      Am             D 
I'm a twenty year old boy

 You're my superhero

And superheroes don't get hurt  
G     Cadd9  
 Dear Mother 
              Am                   D  
It's been two years since we found out 
G              Cadd9  
 They say it's really serious 
            Am                    D 
And there's nothing more they can do  

G      Cadd9 
 Dear Mother 
         Am               D  
You say nothing's set in stone 
G            Cadd9          Am              D 
 You have to conquer every mountain on your own 
G             Cadd9  
 And when the road is tough 
Am              D  
Stop and have a break  
G          Cadd9           Am     D        G       
 And carry on when you are strong enough again 

(Intro)

G      Cadd9 
 Dear Mother 
          Am             D  
I came to visit you last night 
G         Cadd9  
 I'm your son  
    Am                        D 
The one with whom you used to fight  
G     Cadd9 
 Dear Mother 
           Am          D  
They said it was a bad day 
G              Cadd9  
 They said the drugs were talking 
       Am                   D  
That's why you didn't recognize me 
  
G      Cadd9 
 Dear Mother 
         Am               D  
You said nothing's set in stone 
G           Cadd9          Am              D 
 You had to conquer every mountain on your own 
G             Cadd9  
 And when the road was tough 
                Am              D  
I thought you'd stop and have a break  
G                Cadd9            Am    D           G       
 But dear mother nothing's set in stone except your name
