Chords for My Son

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Son, _ you were the seed of life [A#] in me, _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] And now _ _ [A#] I can't believe the [Em] man I [C] see. _ _ _ _ _
[F] With pride _ _ I watched [Gm] you grow _ [C] up,
You wanted [F] so _ [A#] much to change the world [D#] for _ _ [C] me. _ _
My son, _ [F] you gave my simple [A#] life its key.
_ Through [Gm] _ _
you _ _ [A#] I see God's love and [C] mystery.
_ _ _ You build [F] up my _ _ life with your [Gm] sweet music.
_ [A#] _ [A#m] It's written in [F] my song, this melody [C] belongs to you and [F] me, my son.
[C#] _ _ _
[F#] Son, _ _ [F#] I taught you everything [B] I know.
_ _ _ [G#m] _
For soon, _ _ one day [B] I'll have to let [C#] you go.
_ I [C#m] would [F#] gladly die if it saved you from [G#m] the _ _ [G#] heartache,
The [C#] fears and [F#] all the bad _ [B] breaks that tear your [E] world _ _ [G#] apart.
_ [C#] My [F#] son, _ _ you faced the truth and [B] you stood tall.
_ But _ _
[G#m] now _ we face [B] the hardest truth [C#] of _ all.
_ I must say [F#] goodbye, _ but you must go [G#m] on living.
_ [Bm] _ And when my [C#] life is through, I'll always be with you, my one and only son.
_ _ [Bm] I watch you now [F#] with pride, what more is there [C#] to life than you and I, [F#] my _ _ son.
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
