The Mavericks - Children

A ^Bbchild who was ^Ebraised by an ^Bbunworthy ^F7hand, Has ^Bbless of a ^Ebchance of ^Bbbeing a ^F7man. Well ^Bbtry to re^Ebmember and ^Bbthen under^F7stand, Why a ^Bbmother would ^Ebcry while her ^Bbhusband lay ^F7dead. Shot ^Bbdown by the ^Ebgun of a ^Bbrunaway ^F7train, 'Cause ^Bblife in the ^Ebfast lane, it ^Bball ends the ^F7same. Well the ^Bbsame children's ^Eblives, they will ^Bbalways re^F7gret, Are the ^Ebchildren who ^F7never for^Bbget.^{Eb Bb F7 Bb Eb Bb F7}

A ^Bbman ends up ^Ebtired and ^Bbwalking a^F7lone, On a ^Bbstreet corner ^Ebsinging for a ^Bbpenny a ^F7song. What he ^Bbcannot re^Ebmember, was ^Bbnever his ^F7own, Thats the ^Bbanswer he ^Ebgave when he ^Bbspeaks of his ^F7home. Well the ^Bbstreets of my ^Eblife I don't ^Bbknow any^F7more, Where the ^Bbchildren are ^Ebjunkies and the ^Bbladies are ^F7w***es. Well the ^Bbsame children's ^Eblives, they will ^Bbalways re^F7gret, Are the ^Ebchildren who ^F7never for^Bbget.^{Eb Bb F7}

^BbGood^Ebnight, good^Bbnight sweet ^F7child. Why don't you ^Bbdream with the ^Ebangels, to for^Bbget for a ^F7while? To for^Bbget of the ^Eblife, thats been ^Bbhanded to ^F7you, Where ^Bbeverything's ^Ebreal, yet ^Bbnothing is ^F7true. Well per^Bbhaps you can ^Ebchange what the ^Bbcards always ^F7read, For the ^Ebchildren who ^F7never for^Bbget.^{Eb Bb F7 Bb Eb Bb F7}

For a ^Bbtime they were ^Ebcounting you ^Bbout of this ^F7race, You stood ^Bbup like a ^Ebchampion that had ^Bbfallen with ^F7grace. Never ^Bbshowing the ^Ebanguish that ^Bbcovered your ^F7face, You were ^Bbraped and for^Ebgotten, left to ^Bbdie in dis^F7grace. Shot ^Bbdown by the ^Ebgun of a ^Bbrunaway ^F7train, 'Cause ^Bblife in the ^Ebfast lane, it ^Bball ends the ^F7same. Well the ^Bbsame children's ^Eblives, they will ^Bbalways re^F7gret, Are the ^Ebchildren who ^F7never for^Bbget.^{Eb Bb F7}

^BbGood^Ebnight, good^Bbnight sweet ^F7child. Why don't you ^Bbdream with the ^Ebangels, to for^Bbget for a ^F7while? To for^Bbget of the ^Eblife, thats been ^Bbhanded to ^F7you, Where ^Bbeverything's ^Ebreal, yet ^Bbnothing is ^F7true. Well per^Bbhaps you can ^Ebchange what the ^Bbcards always ^F7read, For the ^Ebchildren who ^F7never for^Bbget.^{Eb Bb F7}
