Calling My Children Home chords
Start Jamming...
[F] Those lives were mine to love and cherish, To guard and guide [Am] the home life's way.
Oh God forbid that one should perish, That one at last should go astray.
Back in the years, with all together, [Fm] Around the [F] place we'd romp and play.
So lonely now, times wonder, Oh will they come, home someday.
I'm lonesome for my precious children, [C] They live so far away.
[N] Oh may they hear [F] my calling, Calling and come back home.
I gave my all, my dear children, Their problems still [E] with [Am] love I [F] share.
I'd brave life's storm, defy the tempest, To [C] bring them home from [F] anywhere.
I lived my life, I gave them, To guide them through this [F#] world of strife.
[F] I hope and pray we'll live together, [C] In that great glad hereafter life.
I'm lonesome for [F] my precious children, They live so far [N] away.
Oh may they hear my [F] calling, Calling and come back home someday.
