I've labeled each section verse or chorus to help you distinguish strumming
patterns. I wont provide the strumming pattern here but you can figure it
out listening to the song. Personally I add some left hand muting in the
chorus between the Am and Am as well as between the F and G.
[Verse]
Am
Mother
F G Am F
Tell your children not to walk my way
G Am
Tell your children not to hear my words
F
What they mean
G
What they say

Mother
[Verse]
Mother
Can you keep them in the dark for life
Can you hide them from the waiting world
Oh mother
[Verse]
Father
Gonna take your daughter out tonight
Gonna show her my world
Oh father
[Chorus]
F G Am
Not about to see your light
Am G F
But if you wanna find hell with me
G Am
I can show you what it's like
Am G F
Till you're bleeding
G Am
Not about to see your light
Am G F
But if you wanna find hell with me

I can show you what it's

Tell your children not to hold my hand
Tell your children not to understand
