Biography:
Silverstein is a 5-piece post-hardcore band from Burlington, Ontario, Canada; formed in 2000. The band name was taken from the famous children's author Shel Silverstein.
After several lineup changes, the band acquired Billy Hamilton, a local fan who learned of the band's need for a bassist on the Internet message board "The 905 Board" (an Ontario area outreach board which used to be for local musicians). In Christmas of 2001, he joined the band after Shane Told helped him learn the music for the songs.

I wrote down the chords to this song using the tabbed version by Joshua Garcia ([email protected]),
so credit goes out to him.
Let me know if there is anything that needs to be corrected.
G
Dear Mother can you hear my footsteps?
C# C#
I’m so close, I’m right there.
A G# B
I’m almost home, so unprepared
B
To notice yet ignore
A G#
How hard it is to be around you.
C# C#
I've come clean, I’m washed out.
A G# B
I've flooded the engine, stranded myself.
B
This home, native land
A G#
They speak in words I can’t understand.
A B G# E D# A
So when I’m standing on this street like I have a hundred times,
B G#
You don’t even glance at me you just pass me by.
E D# C# B A
I remember your face, from the moment I first saw you I never looked away.
E D#
I’ll never forget how you looked that Saturday when you told me
C# B A
We could never be together, and I could never change.
G
Mother, Mother is it you who’s calling?
C# C#
Lights out, lay down,
A G# B
We’ll sleep when we’re dead, that time is now.
B
But soft speak will drown out
A G#
How I can’t do what’s right around you.
C# C#
Cold breeze, no coat,
A G# B
Excuses used to take words from my throat.
B
False hope confirmed.
A G# A
Deceits a language I can’t hope to learn.
B G# E D# A
So when I’m standing on this street like I have a hundred times,
B G#
We will celebrate the years you stalled and couldn't decide.
E D# C# B A
I remember your face, from the moment I first saw you I never looked away.
E D#
I’ll never forget how you looked that Saturday when you told me
C# B A
We could never be together, and I could never change.
C# C#
I used to believe that every person had a purpose
C# B
In this swirling ball of indecision that consumes us all.
C# C#
I used to believe that every person had a person
C# B
They could always count on and not be scared of, one for everyone.
A B G# E D# A
So when I’m standing on this street like I have a hundred times,
B G# G#
Can I walk away and finally leave, finally leave all of this behind?
E D# C# B A
I remember your face, from the moment I first saw you I never looked away.
E D#
I’ll never forget how you looked that Saturday when you told me
C# B A
We could never be together, and I could never change.
E D# C# B A
I remember your face, from the moment I first saw you I never looked away.
