Father To Son

[Intro] G  F  Eb  D

C                    
  A word in your ear
D                  
  From father to son
G   D/F#             Em
  Hear the word that I say
C                 
  I fought with you
D                    
  Fought on your side
G  Bm                   E
  Long before you were born

 G
Joyful the sound
     C
The word goes around
      Am               D
From father to son to son

C                         
  And the voice is so clear
D                        
  Time after time it keeps
 G           D/F#       Em
Calling you calling you on
C                          
  Don't destroy what you see
D
  Your country to be
           G                Bm
Just keep building on the ground
        E
That's been won

 G
Kings will be crowned
     C
The word goes around
      Am               D
From father to son to son

( G  F  Eb  D )

                       F
Won't you hear us sing

Our family song?

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

               Ab   
Now we hand it on
E                              D  A
  But I've heard it all before
E                                  D  A
  Take this letter that I give you
E                             A
  Take it sonny, hold it high
 E                                       D
You won't understand a word that's in it
 A           E                            D
But you'll write it all again before you die

D
  Will stay by your side
           G
Thru' the years

Till the loneliness is gone
