My Son Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Oh, my darling [G]son
When you were a little boy,
soldiers used to be your toys
Now that you've grown up, my son,
you play soldiers with a [D]gun
Oh, my darlin' [G]son
Mom and I are proud of you
Where you are, the job you do
Just a boy who used to play
Uncle Sam took you away, my [D]son[G][D]
[G]
In the streets the draft cards burn
while we wait home for your return
Some folks say we're wrong to fight,
but you're right, home,
that we are right, my [D]son.
Oh, my darling [G]son.
Someday, son, the world will be a place
where people will be free.
Bombs and guns will just be toys.
Bombs and pads won't lose their [D]voice.
Oh, my darling [G]son.[D]
One and only [G]son. [D]you
