[D] [G]
[D] [A]
[D] You, who are on [G] the road, must have [D] a code that you [A] can live by
[D] And so, become [G] yourself, because [D] the past is just [A] a goodbye
[D] Teach [G] your children well, their [D] father's hell did slowly [A] go by
And [D] feed them [G] on your dreams, the [D] one they'd fix, the [A] one you'll know by
[D]
Don't you ever ask [G] them why, if they told you you [D] would cry
So just look at them and [Bm] sigh, [G]
[A] and know [D] they love you
[G]
[D]
[A] [D] And you, of [G] tender years, I know [D] the fears that you [A] always grew by
And so [D] please help them with [G] your need, they [D] seek the truth before they [A] can die
[D] Teach your [G] parents well, their [D] children's hell will slowly [A] go by
[D] And feed them on [G] your dreams, the one [D] they'd fix, the one [A] you'll know by
Don't [D] you ever ask [G] them why, if they told you you [D] would cry
So just look at them [Bm] and sigh, [G] [A] and [D] know they love you
