THE CRADLE OF HUMANKIND - Flogging Molly Tabbed by: Javo (Javier Concha) Tuning: Intro Dm Am Dm A# C

The sum ^Fof all my fears like dread are from de^Ammons yet to come All the ^A#things I should've mentioned wave goo^Dmdbye and "we^C'll see you soon" It's the^F words I've never written that say mor^Ame about myself Where em^A#pty is the promise lies a ^Dmpocket full of doubt^C

.................................................. Chorus:

So may t^Fhe road I've yet to ta^Dmke Leave a ^Fsmile across my fa^Dmce 'Till th^Fe laughter sheds the ^Cdarkness far b^Amehind For I still belo^Fng in the c^A#radle ^Cof humankind^Dm ..................................................

Am Dm A# C

Though m^Fy time may be less traveled than t^Amhose that came before We're al^A#l exiles here in madness kicking d^Dmown each other's d^Coor Unfo^Frgiven is the lesson we pour ^Amupon ourselves When a h^A#elping hand is needed, slap^Dm in the face is what we^C get

But I will^F fight for this ^Dmright and each mo^Fment of it's ^Dmlife 'Till I wi^Ftness all the d^Cifferences yet to ^Amheal

.................................................. Chorus:

Am Dm A# C

Sometimes ^Fdrink till I am empty, grab an^Amother from the shelf Though I'm ^A#stuck in conversation, it's with m^Dmyself and no one el^Cse Never li^Fsten to much reason till I h^Amear it's a last call When I n^A#otice that my ghost is still da^Dmncing on his ^Cown

.................................................. Chorus:

So may t^Fhe road I've yet to ta^Dmke Leave a ^Fsmile across my fa^Dmce 'Till th^Fe laughter sheds the ^Cdarkness far b^Amehind For I still belo^Fng in the cradle^A# of humankind ..................................................

Wherever you^C go (The sun sets to rise On a day that you find You Struggle to be But you're already there) Wherever you ^Fgo

Wherever yo^Cu go (A passionless life Has no words to write It's a body that's broken And breathless of life) Oh, wherever yo^Fu go

There'll always^A# be a roof and a dream above our ^Fhead As long as I'm ^Cbreathing,^A# then forever I'll b^Fe

Ah, I will^F fight for this ^Dmright and each mo^Fment of it's ^Dmlife 'Till I wi^Ftness all the d^Cifferences yet to ^Amheal

.................................................. Chorus:

So may t^Fhe road we've yet to t^Dmake Leave a ^Fsmile across our f^Dmace 'Till th^Fe laughter sheds the ^Cdarkness far b^Amehind We still belong ^Fin the crad^A#le of ^Chumankind ^Dm ..................................................
