Morning sighed, [B]
[E] the old man died, and no one cried.
[B]
[E] They simply turned away, [A] and when he died,
He left a table made of [E] nails and pride,
And [B] with his hands [C#m] he carved these words inside,
[B]
For my children.
[E]
Morning light,
[E] morning bright,
[B] I spent the night with dreams that make you [A] weep.
Morning time, wash away the sadness from [E] these eyes of mine,
For I recall the [B] words an old man signed,
[E] For my children.
[A] And the legs were shaped with his hands,
[E] And the top made of oak and wood,
[B] And the children who sat around this great table,
Touched with their laughter,
[E] and that was good.
[B] Morning sighed,
[E] an old man died, [B] [E]
[B] and no one cried.
[E] He surely died alone, [A] and truth is said,
For not a child would claim [E] the gift he had.
The words he carved became [B] his epitaph,
[F#m]
For [E] my children.
