Luke Kelly - Come my little son

^FCome me little ^Cson and ^FI will tell you ^Bbwhat we'^Fll do, ^FUndress yourself, and get ^Bbinto ^Fbed and a tale I'll ^Fsus2tell to ^Bbyou It's ^Fall about your ^Bbdaddy, ^Fhe's a man you seldom ^Bbsee,^Bbsus2 For he's ^Fhad to ^Croam a^C/Eway from ^Fhome, far away from ^Bbyou and ^Fme.

^FRemember lad he's ^Bbstill your ^Fdad, ^FThough he's working ^Fsus2far ^Bbaway^Bbsus2, In the ^Fcold and ^Cheat all the ^C/Ehours a ^Fweek, ^{Bb F} On England's ^Bbmotor^Fway.

Now ^FWhen you fall and ^Churt your^Fself and get to ^Bbfeeling ^Fbad, It ^Fisn't any ^Bbgood to ^Fgo a-running ^Fsus2for your ^Bbdad, For the ^Fonly time since ^Bbyou were ^Fborn, he's had to spend with ^Bbyou,^Bbsus2 He was ^Fout of a ^Cjob and he ^C/Ehadn't a ^Fbob, he was signing ^Bbon the ^Fbrew

^FRemember lad he's ^Bbstill your ^Fdad, ^FThough he's working ^Fsus2far ^Bbaway^Bbsus2, In the ^Fcold and ^Cheat all the ^C/Ehours a ^Fweek, ^{Bb F} On England's ^Bbmotor^Fway.

^FSure we'd like your ^Cdaddy ^Fhere, yes sure it ^Bbwould be ^Ffine, To ^Fhave him working ^Bbnearer ^Fhome, and to see him ^Fsus2all the ^Bbtime, But ^Fbeggars can't be ^Bbchoosers ^Fand we have to bear our ^Bbload^Bbsus2, For we ^Fneed the ^Cmoney your ^C/Edaddy ^Fearns a working ^Bbon the ^Froad.

^FRemember lad he's ^Bbstill your ^Fdad, And he'll ^Fsoon be ^Fsus2home to ^Bbstay^Bbsus2, for a ^Fweek or ^Ctwo, with ^C/Eme and ^Fyou When he's ^Fbuilt the ^Bbmotor^Fway.
