[Dsus4]

[Verse 1]
[G]She dreams of [C]pencil [G]gowns,
[C]An orchard in the [G]spring[Dsus4]
[G]A house i[C]n its own g[G]rounds,
[Em]the joys that [C]love
[G]should bring[Gsus4][G]
[Dsus4]Three mil[D]es to school[G] each day,[Dsus4]
[C]a tea[D]cher to her tra[Am]de
Rules to [G]be [C]obeyed
[G]His world a m[C]elody
[G]On eve[C]ry street and tow[G]n[Dsus4]
[G]No game, no boy[C]'s cha[G]nt
[Em]Can match [C]his secret
[G]sound[Gsus4][G]
[Dsus4]Each time[D] that she [G]draw[Dsus4]s near,
he [C]reaches [D]for[Dsus4] her glance[Am]
Partners [G]in [C]the family [Dsus4]dance
[D]Mot[G]her and s[Em]on[C][G][Dsus4]
[G]Who can for[Em]etell the[C] mystery
to [G]come?[Gsus4][G]
Maybe [F]a two -step on a star
Or a long road in [C]shadow
Caught in a [Am]web,
[G]my [C]destin[Dsus4]y spun[Em]
Nowhere [Am]to run[G], f[C]rom Mo l[Dsus4]och's son[D][G][C]
[D][G][D][G][C][D][G][C][D][G]
[C][D][G][C]
[G]Her dreams grow [C]dimmer [G]now,
[C]the years have claimed their [G]toll[Dsus4]
[D]A c[G]hild once more[C],
[G]she waits for [Em]peace of [C]mind [G]to fall
[Dsus4]He leans [D]to comfor[G]t h[Dsus4]er
and [C]cap[Dsus4]tures my [D]sur[Dsus4] prise[C]
[Am]The stranger in hi[G]s [C]mother's
[D]eye[Dsus4]s
[D]Mother [G]and s[Em]on,
[C]mother and [G]son[Dsus4][G]
Who can [Em]or dain th[C]e promise
to [G]come?[C][Gsus4][G]
Maybe [F]a curtain called bouquet
Or a garland of [C]sorrow
Caught in a [Am]web [G]my d[C]es[D]tiny spun
[Em]Tied[C] to th[Em]e bead [Am]of[G][C]
[Am]the [D]ancestral drum[Em]
Nowhere to [Am]run f[G]ro[C]m
[Dsus4]Mother and [D]Son[G][C][D][G][D]
[G]Mot[C]her and[D] Son[G]
[C]I lov[D]e
