Chords for John Wright - The things we've handed down

I'm going to do something now which I've always wanted to do since I was this high. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I wish they'd let me smoke a cigarette. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's a wonderful song by a man called Mark Cohen. _

_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [Bm] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ [G] don't know much [D] about you
_ I don't know [G] who you are
We were doing [D] fine without you
But we could only go so [G] far
I don't know why [D] you chose us
[Em] Were you watching from [C] above?
_ [G] Is there someone [D] there that knows us?
[Em] Said we'd give you all [C] _ our _ _
[G] _ love
_ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[G] Will you look just like [D] your mother?
[Em] Will you sigh like your [C] old man?
Will [G] something skip a [D] _ generation like [Em] I heard [D] they often [C] can?
Are [D] you a poet [G] or a dancer?
_ A [Bm] devil [G] or a clown? _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Or a [D] strange new combination [G] of [C] the things [D] we've handed [G] down? _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [G] I wonder who [D] you'll look like
[Em] Will your hair hang [C] down and curl?
_ [G] Will you be [D] a mama's boy or daddy's [C] little girl?
_ [G] Will you be a sad [D] reminder [Em] of what's been lost along [C] the way? _
[G] Maybe you can help [D] me find her in [Em] the things [Bm] you do [G] and _ _ say
_ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
These [D] things that we have [Em] given you
[G] They are not [Bm] so [C] easily _ found
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ Oh, [Gm] but you [D] can thank [Em] us later [G] for the things [D] we've [G] handed down _
[D] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ You [G] may not always be [D] so grateful _ [Em] for the way that you were [G] made
Maybe some feature of [D] your fathers that [E] you'd [D] gladly sell or trade _
[G] And one day you [F#] may [D] look at us [Em] and say that you were cursed
[C] _ [G] But over time [D] that line has been [Em] _ _ [D] extremely well [G] _
_ _ _ rehearsed
[D] By our fathers and [G] their fathers in some old and [C] distant town
[Dm] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
From [G] places no [D] one here [Em] remembers [A] come [C] the things [D] we've handed [G] down

[Em] _ _ _ _ [G] The things we've handed _ down
[D] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ [G] The things [C] we've [G] handed _ _ [D] down
The _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ things we've _ _ _ _ handed _ _ _ _ _ _ _ down
[Bm] _ Thank _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
