[Intro]
C
 
[Verse 1]
 
Sons of the thief, sons of the saint
                      Dm    G
Who is the child with no complaint
Dm          F        G      Dm
Sons of the great or sons unknown
G                 C
All were children like your own
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
The same sweet smiles, the same sad tears
                        Dm
The cries at night, the nightmare fears
            E      C      Ab
Sons of the great, sons unknown
Dm       G                 C
All were children like your own
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
Sons of tycoons, or sons from the farms
                    Dm            G
All of the children ran from your arms
        Dm        F            G          Dm
Through fields of gold, through fields of ruin
           G                     C
All of the children vanished too soon
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
In towering waves, in walls of flesh
                 Dm
Amid dying birds trembling with death
          E      C             Ab
Sons of tycoons, sons from the farms
Dm         G                      C
All of the children ran from your arms
 
 
[Verse 5]
 
Sons of your sons, sons passing by
                      Dm   G
Children were lost in lullaby
Dm           F     G         Dm
Sons of true love, sons of regret
G                        C
All of your sons you can never forget
 
 
[Verse 6]
 
Some build the roads, some wrote the poems
                       Dm
Some went to war, some never came home
             E     C            Ab
Sons of your sons, sons passing by
Dm            G            C
Children were lost in lullaby
   G    C
In lullaby
 
In lullaby
