[Intro]
| Am7 Em11/A | Am7 - | G - | - - |
| -   -      |

[Verse 1]
G
Welcome to the end of being alone inside your mind
       C                                 G
You're tethered to another and you're worried all the time
    D                                C         G/B
You always knew the melody but you never heard it rhyme
Am7 Em11/A Am7      G
              She's fair and she is quiet, Lord,
she doesn't look like me
    C
She made me love the morning,
          G
she's a holiday at sea
    D                                      C        G/B
The New York streets are as busy as they always used   to
be
Am7 G                           D
     But I am the mother of Evangeline

[Verse 2]
G    G
 The first things that she took from me were selfishness
and sleep
    C                                  G
She broke a thousand heirlooms I was never meant to keep
    D
She filled my life with color, canceled plans,
C           G/B      Am7 G
 and trashed   my car
                                    D
But none of that was ever who we are
G
Outside of my windows are the mountains and the snow
      C                                    G
I hold you while you're sleeping and I wish that I could go
   D                               C       G/B
All my rowdy friends are out accomplishing their dreams
Am7 G                           D
     But I am the mother of Evangeline

[Bridge]
G                  D                                    C
 And they've still got their morning paper and their coffee
              G
and their time
         D                                       C
And they still enjoy their evenings with the skeptics and
        G
the wine
           B7
Oh, but all  the wonders I have seen,
       C       G/B
I will see a second time
Am7     G                                   D
   From inside of the ages through your eyes

[Verse 3]
G
You are not an accident where no one thought it through
    C
The world has stood against us,
            G
made us mean to fight for you
    D                                          C
And when we chose your name we knew that you'd fight the
G/B   Am7 Em11/A
power too
Am7       G
   You're nothing short of magical and beautiful to me
Oh,
     C
I'll never hit the big time without you
G   D                                          C
 So they can keep their treasure and their ties to the
G/B
machine
Am7
G                              D     Em
 'Cause I am the mother of Evangeline

[Outro]
C                       G/B                Am7
They can keep their treasure and their ties   to the
       Em11/A
machine
G                              D
 'Cause I am the mother of Evangeline
G C   G/B Am7 G C  G/B Am7 G
  Ooh,          ooh
C  G/B Am7 G
Ooh
