^CWe carried you in o^Amur arms ^Fon Independen^Dmce Day ^Bb And now you'd throw us all ^Faside and ^Cput us all away Oh, what dear daughter 'neath the ^Amsun could ^Ftreat a father so?^Dm ^Bb To wait upon him ^Fhand and foot and ^Calways tell him "No"

(Chorus)

^E7 Tears of rage,^Am tears of grief ^F Why must I always^C be the thief? ^E7 Come to me now, you know we're^Am so low ^F And life is ^C7brief ^Fmaj7 ^C

(Verse 2) It was all very painless When you went out to receive All that false instruction Which we never could believe And now the heart is filled with gold As if it was a purse But, oh, what kind of love is this Which goes from bad to worse? (Chorus) (Verse 3) We pointed you the way to go And scratched your name in sand Though you just thought it was nothing more Than a place for you to stand I want you to know that while we watched You discovered no one would be true And I myself was among The ones who thought It was just a childish thing to do (Chorus)
