I am my mother’s savage daughter,

The one who runs barefoot, cursing sharp stones.

I am my mother’s savage daughter,

I will not cut my hair, I will not lower my voice.
Altogether
Am C G Am
My mother’s child is a savage

She looks for her omens in the colors of stones,

In the faces of cats, In the fall of feathers,

In the dancing of fire and the curve of old bones.
Altogether
Am C G Am
My mother’s child dances in darkness,
Am C G Am
she sings heathen songs by the light of the moon,
Am C G Am
And watches the stars, and renames the planets,
Am G Am
And dreams she can reach them with a song and a broom.
No Ukes just drum/tap

I am my mother’s savage daughter,

The one who runs barefoot, cursing sharp stones.

I never got the invites to parties at the pool

Nobody sent me a valentine, When they were going 'round at school
Am F C G
I didn’t have a prom date Wasn’t skinny wasn’t cool
C G C
So I never got the invites to the pool
C F C
I never got the invites To the common after class

The girls the boys called pretty Tore my confidence apart
Am F C G
They didn’t like my clothes They used to point at them and laugh
C F C
So I was never at the common after class
[Chorus]

They have their hot girl summer

With their hot girl friends

Drinking hot girl wine

With their hot girl men

And though I might not be hot enough for hot girl things

Turns out I wrote a song that the hot girls sing

And I never get the invites To parties in the hills

The girls who peaked in high school Decorate the window sills
Am F C G
But everybody lives inside a world The outcasts build
C F C
Though we’re never at the parties in the hills
[Chorus]
(Acapella with clapping on the off beat)
