Teach Your Children Graham Nash

INTRO: [D] [Dsus2] [D] [G5] [D] [Dsus2] [D] [G5]

[D]You [Dsus2] [D]who are on the [G5]road

Must have a [D] [Dsus2] [D]code that you can [A]live by

And [D]so [Dsus2] [D]become your[G5]self

Because the past[D] [Dsus2] [D] is just a good-[A]bye.

[D]Teach [Dsus2] [D] your children [G5]well,

Their father's [D]hell[Dsus2] [D] did slowly go [A]by,

And feed[D] [Dsus2] [D]them on your [G5]dreams

The one they picks[D] [Dsus2] [D]the one you'll know [A]by.

[D]Don't you [Dsus2] ever [D]ask them [G5]why, if they told you, you will [D]cry,

So just look at them and [Bm]sigh [G5] [A]

and know they love [D]you.[Dsus2] [G5] [D] [Dsus2] [A]

And [D]you, [Dsus2]of [D]tender years[G5],

Can't know the [D]fears [Dsus2] [D]that your elders grew by,

And so please [D]help [Dsus2]them [D]with your [G5]youth,

They seek the [D]truth [Dsus2] [D]before they can [A]die.

Teach your parents well,

Their children's hell will slowly go by,

And feed them on your dreams

The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,

So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.
