Teach your children

Song composer: Graham Nash
Lyrics author: Graham Nash


F Bb F C 
F Bb 
You, who are on the road,
F 
Must have a code
C2 
That you can live by.
F Bb 
And so become yourself,
F 
Because the past
C2 
Is just a goodbye.
F Bb 
Teach your children well,
F 
Their father’s hell
C2 
It slowly goin’ by.
F Bb 
And feed them on your dreams,
F 
The one they picks,
C2 
The one you’ll know by.
 
           F Bb 
            Don’t you ever ask them why,
           F 
            If they told you, you will cry.
           Dm Bb 
            So just look at them and sigh,
           C F 
            And know they love you.
Bb F C 
F Bb 
And you, of tender years,
F 
Can’t know the fears
C2 
That your elders grew by.
F Bb 
And so please help them with your dreams,
F 
They seek the trick
C2 
Before they can die.
F Bb 
Teach your parents well,
F 
Their children’s hell
C2 
Will slowly go by.
F Bb 
And feed them on your dreams,
F 
The one they picks
C2 
The one you’ll know by.
           F Bb 
            Don’t you ever ask them why,
           F 
            If they told you, you will cry.
           Dm Bb 
            So just look at them and sigh,
           C F 
            And know they love you.
Bb F C F
