_ [E] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ _
[Am] Your father was [F] a rounder, he played that rock and [G] roll. _
[E] A leaper and [Am] a bounder, [F] down to his [C] gypsy soul. _
[Am] The music was [F] his angel, _ [Em] and sorrow [F] was his [C] scar.
And [E] those of us who [Am] follow, _ _ [F] might hope to [C] reach as far.
[Dm] But they're walking [E] slow in [F] Houston, _
_ [C] speechless [E] in [Am] D.C. _ _
[Dm] There's no [Em] way I [F] could tell you what he meant [C] to me.
[G] _ _ _
[Am] Your _ mother's a [F] survivor, _ [C] she'll do [F] what must [C] be done. _
[E] Her children will [Am] revive her, _ [Gm] and help her see [C] the sun. _
[Am] She almost knew [F] that you were sun, [Em] but the singing [F] stopped too [C] soon.
And [E] now she shares the [Am] silence, with a man [Dm] up in [C] the moon. _
[Dm] They speak [C] of missing [F] persons, _ [C] and like [E] there's only [Am] one. _
_ [Dm] We [Em] all carry [F] with us what the _ [C] man's begun.
_ [G] And you've [F] been singing [C] sun, _ _ _ [F] until I've been [C] far.
_ _ _ [F] In the sunny [C] sun, _ _ _ [F] and the frozen [C] _ light.
_ _ [F] It's a day [C] of light, _ _ _ it's a day [E] of hurt.
_ _ Does it take [Am] a death to learn what a life [F] is worth?
Your _ _ _ [Am] brothers are [F] all older, _ [Em] and they take [F] it in [C] their stride.
_ [E] The _ world's a little [Am] colder, _ with [G] manhood [C] on their side.
[Am] Now _ you're the [F] little girl child, [Em] and you're so [F]
much [C] like him.
_ [E] And he's right there [Am] inside you, [F] each time you [C] want to sing.
_ [Dm] Sing [Em] of missing [F] persons, _ [C] and like [E] there's only [Am] one.
_ [Dm] But he's [Am] where you can [F] find him when it's sad [C] and_ _
_ [G] And we [F] will sing the [C] sun, _ _ _ _ until I'm_ _ _
_ [F] In the sunny [C] sun, _ _ _ and the frozen light. _ _
This [F] will always [C] be, _ _ your [E] day of _ birth. _
May you always [Am] see, what your life is [C] _ _ worth. _ _ _

_ [Em] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ And [C] there's no single _ song, [F] until I'm [C] apart. _
_ _ From the sunny sun, _ _ _ and the frozen light. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] It's your day [C] of _ birth. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
