Song To A Young Seagull chords by Jill Barber, Matthew Barber
Intro 1
D
Verse 1
D
Don't let your mama
love you too long
G
It'll make you weak instead of strong
What's right just might be wrong
D
And what looks good ain't always best
A
But when it's time to leave the nest,
G
if you fail to pass the test
You'll be just like all the rest
D
and you'll be sorry
Don't let your mama feed you too much
G
She might get you in her clutches
And be just a pair of crutches
D
that you'll have to throw away
A

D
We are turning right to Session
Catch you givin' in
G
if you wait for too much longer
Those old apron strings
get stronger
D
than the feelin' of your sin
A
And the one you idolize
G
won't be there to dry your eyes
He'll be somewhere in
D
the skies of your world
G
Now's the time to go
before the cold wind starts to blow
D
And any further and you're bored
G
Now's the time to know,
you've got to have the strength to show
A
you should make it all on your own
D
Don't let your mama love
you too long,
G
it'll make you weak instead of strong
What's right just might be wrong,
D
and what looks good ain't always best
A
But when it's time to leave the nest,
G
if you fail to pass the test
You'll be just like the rest
D
and you'll be solid
You
