He [Em] is gone.
The Good Son walk
into the [E] field.
He is a tiller, he has a tiller's hand.
But deeper down [Em] in his heart now, [E] he's laid down queer plans
Against his brother and against his family.
Yet he worships his brother, [Em]
and he worships his mother
But it's his father he says, is an unfair man, [Am] the good son.
The [Em] good son, [Am] the good son, [Em] the good son that said
And I've learned well, that even my lifestyle, by which the good son's kept
And the night time, in which he's wrapped, speaks of good now
And it speaks of evil, and he calls to his mother, and he calls to his father
But they are dim in the shadows of his brother's fluency, the [Am] good son.
The [E] good son,
[Em]
[Am] the good son, the [Em] good son
And he curses his mother, and he curses his father
And he curses his blood to lack an unclean [Am] face, the good son.
