[Ab] [Eb] [Db] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] [Db] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] Like father, [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] like son, like father, [Db] [Bb] like son
Don't come on so cock sure boy
You can't [Eb] escape your genes
[Bb] There's no point in [Eb] feeling [Bb] pure boy
Your background in [Eb] defeat
Now this incorrectness has faded
[Bb] You're not the master [Eb] of your fate
[Gb] To this you must be reconciled
[Ab] You'll always be your father's [Dbm] child
[Bb] The times are blamed [Eb] and times ripped
While you'll [C] wind up doing just as I'd have to
[Bb]
[F] [Bb]
Don't [Eb] [Bb] assume your vices
Get [Eb] handed down the line
[Bb] That a [Eb] parent's [Bb] blood suffices
To condemn the [Eb] child's sin
I've done wrong I can't deny
[Bb] But at least [Eb] I know that [Gb] I
I shouldn't blame that on my stock
[Ab] Well this may come as quite a shock
But [Bb] I'm no chip off [Eb] and block
I [C] wouldn't wish those words on anyone
[Bb] Like father,
[A] [Ab] like son
[Eb] [Gm] Son you're nervous, take my [F] hand
[Am] All is settled, all is [F] planned
[Dm] You've got the world [D] at your command
I [G] don't think you [Gm] understand
I [G]
appreciate too well
[F] The squalor at which you [Am] [Dm] excel
It [D] isn't very hard to [Gm] tell
Evil's a distinctive smell
[Ab]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
He's lost [Eb] all [Bb] sense of reason
And why [Eb] some poor is slacked
[Bb] Not [Eb] all it is [Bb] that treason
Some [Eb] dogs are slam and shot
Now just like me he's found that there
[Bb] Is man in flight but well in [Gb] man
Once we rid him of this lie
[Ab] Once that heartless act of mine
[Bb] Then I think [Eb] he'll see the light
[C] He won't walk back down and he'll run
[Bb] Like father, [F] [Bb] like son
[Ab] [Eb] [Db] [Bb]
