Mother Mother Tracy Bonham
"Mother, Mother"
The opening riff and most of the song:
"Mother, Mother...are you litenting?"
Am Abm Gm F#m, then back up struming once at each fret. Listen to the song
to get the rythym.
I play them with barre chords, slightly muted, staying on the lower strings.
The prechorus part:
"When you sent me off to seek the world..."
[Am] [Gm] [Fm]
The chorus part:
"I'm hungry...I'm dirty...I'm losing my mind...EVERYTHING'S FINE!!!"
Not quite sure...I think it's Fm every time with a bit of distortion thrown
in. Any suggestions on this part?
Overall, I think this was a pretty easy song to figure out and to play.
Anyone want to figure out the tidbits of violin in the song?

This is my first Posting, so please be gentle <g>. When I first heard this song, I was scared,
because she was screaming. Then I picked up my acoustic guitar and tried to imitate the song.
I got it pretty well, and I think I have it:

i don't know the rest of the info
it is realy simple all you do is play these chords through the verse:
A e +-5-+ G# e +-4-+ G e +-3-+ F# e +-2---+ b +-5-+ b +-4-+ b +-e-+ b +-2------------------+ g +-6-+ g +-5-+ g +-4-+ g +-3------------------+ D +-7-+ D +-6-+ D +-5-+ D +-4------------------+ A +-7-+ A +-6-+ A +-5-+ A +-4------------------+ E +-5-+ E +-4-+ E +-3-+ E +-2------------------+
you play A G# G F# about 1 or 2 measures each then go back up the neck (G G# A)
one
measure each.
i'm not sure about the chorus but i think it is just the same only distoted
i hope it makes scence
