TITLE: The Fathers of the Founding Fathers
ALBUM: This Machine Pwns N00bs
MUSIC AND LYRICS: Hank Green
ORIGINAL ARTISTS: Hank Green
TRANSCRIPTION: Andrew Marsden
I was surprised that there were no chords for this song yet!
It's a very simple 3-chord song.
I'm fairly certain this is right, I just came up with this sheet on the fly.
==============
INTRO
F C (x1 in album version, x5 in YouTube version)
VERSE
C G
Every fathers' day, I hear the same old story,
C G
But if fathers are so great, why don't they get any glory?
C F G
You hear about their sons, and the great things they've done,
C G C
But the fathers of great men are quickly forgotten:
BRIDGE
C F
Rockefeller created gas stations;
C F
Washington gave birth to a nation;
C F
Bell revolutionised communication;
C F
King ended segregation.
CHORUS
C F C
Well I know all of these men, and the good things they've done,
C G C
But I don't know any of the men who called these men "son".
C F G
So, if fatherhood is the most important job by far,
C G C
Why don't I know who the fathers of the founding fathers are?
VERSE
C G
I can only think of a couple of men,
C G
Who were famous but had dads who were awesomer than them.
C F G
Just think about it for a minute or two,
C G C
And try to think of more than Jesus and Hank Williams, Junior.
C G
And I'd be a fool if I didn't mention,
C G
The dads who raised kids who happened not to be men.
C F G
The great women of this world were once little girls,
C G C
And were polished by their fathers into powerful pearls.
BRIDGE
C F
Earhart was the queen of aviation;
C F
Nightingale saved hospitalisation;
C F
And Curie discovered radiation;
C F
And Tubman fought for emancipation.
CHORUS
C F C
Well I know all of these women, and the places they've been,
C G C
But I don't even know the names of the men who fathered them.
C F G
So, if fatherhood is the most important job by far,
C G C
Then why don't I know who the fathers of the founding fathers are?
VERSE
C G
We spend a lot more time talking about,
C G
The dads of the guys who turned out to be louts.
C F G
We only talk about the dad when the parenting is bad,
C G C
And the kid ends up murdering half of Leningrad.
C G
So it's obvious good dads are underrated,
C G
So I guess they need a day to be appreciated.
C F G
Which is why we're here to day, I think we all should say,
C G C
"Thanks" to the men who made great men and women great.
BRIDGE
C F
Jack Daniels perfected distillation;
C F
And Disney pioneered animation;
C F
And Edison brought electrification;
C F
And Gandhi fought for liberation.
CHORUS/OUTRO
