Verse 1
When first I saw you,
your life had just (G major) be gun
I (D major) was bound to love you,
my very soul was one. (G major)
(D major) But now the bonds are changing,
your childhood's nearly gone. (G major) (D major)
Soon you will go, my son. (A major)
I (D major) fed your hunger,
I suffered all your (E minor) pain
(G major) When (D major) you smiled, I'd answer,
that made you (G major) smile again
Are (D major) we becoming strangers
that once did breathe
Who (G major) (D major) are you now,
my son? (A major) (Asus4) (A major) (Asus4)
(D major) You wake in the morning,
but you're dreaming all the day. (G major)
At (D major) school you sit and gaze at
things so far (G major) away
(D major) Where old your hopes have faded
and yours have just begun
What do you dream, my (A major) son?
I've (D major) seen you watching,
(C major) amazement (D major) in your (G major) eye (D major) s
This world we've left you
a junk heap in dis (G major) guise
When (D major) you watch us unbelieving,
we older wiser ones
(G major) what (D major) do you see my (G major) son
(A major) you (D major) ask a question
you wait for my reply
(G major) but the (D major) world's so changed
sometimes you know as much as (G major) in
(D major) the new world that is coming
the old must ask the young
(G major) then (D major) where will you turn my son
(A major) you'll (D major) (A major) (D major) reach for loving
you'll learn that people (G major) die
you'll (D major) go on dreaming once
again
you'll learn to (G major) cry.
(D major) And when you've joined our battle,
when you've learned right from wrong,
then you must go, my (A major) son. (Asus4)
you
My Son
