Sons Of
Dadd9Sons of the Dthief, Dmaj7sons of the Dsaint
Dadd9Who is the cDhild with Gno compA7laint
EmSons of the Em7great or Em6sons unEm7known
All were A7children Dlike your own
The Dadd9same sweet Dsmiles, the Dmaj7same sad Dtears
The Dadd9cries at Dnight, the Gmaj7nightmare fears
G Bm A Bb+
Sons of the great or sons unknown
GAll were Achildren Dlike your own...
ASo long aBmgo, Along, long, aBmgo...
But Dadd9sons of tyDcoons or Dmaj7sons of the Dfarms
Dadd9All of the cDhildren ran Gfrom your A7arms
Through Emfields of Em7gold, through Em6fields of Em7ruin
All of the A7children Dvanished too soon
In Dadd9tow’ring Dwaves, iDmaj7n walls oDf flesh
Among Dadd9dying Dbirds Gmaj7trembling with death
G Bm A Bb+
Sons of tycoons or sons of the farms
GAll of the Achildren ran Dfrom your arms...
DSo long aC#go: Dlong, long, aC#go...
(down to key of F#)
But sons of your sons or sons passing by
Children we lost in lullabies
Sons of true love or sons of regret
All of the sons you cannot forget
Some built the roads, some wrote the poems
Some went to war, some never came home
Sons of your sons or sons passing by
Children we lost in lullabies...
So long ago: long, long, ago
But, sons of the theif, sons of the saint
Who is the child with no complaint
Sons of the great or sons unknown
All were children like your own
The same sweet smiles, the same sad tears
The cries at night, the nightmare fears
Sons of the great or sons unknown
All were children like your own...
P.S.: This gave me a lot of work but still I'm not absolutely
happy with it, so, feel free to give any correction you feel it is needing.
