D You who are on the G road
Must have a D code that you can l A ive by
And D so become your G self
Because the D past is just a A goodbye.
D Teach your children w G ell,
Their father's D hell did slowly A go by
And D feed them on your G dreams
The one they D picked, the one you'll A know by.
(beware that tempo changes)
D Don't you ever ask them G why, if they told you, you
D Bm G A (mute)
would cry,So just look at them and sigh
D G A (mute)
and know they love you.
And D you, of tender y G ears,Can't know
the D fears that your elders A grew by,And so D please help them
with your G youth,They seek the D truth before they A can die.
D Teach your parents G well,Their
children's D hell will slowly A go by,And fe D ed them on
your dr G eamsThe one they p D icked, the one you'll k A now by.
