[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Sons of the sea, sons of the saint
Dm G
Who is the child with no complaint
Dm F G Dm
Sons of the great or sons unknown
G C
All were children like your own
[Verse 2]
The same sweet smiles, the same sad tears
Dm
The cries at night, the nightmare fears
E C Ab
Sons of the great, sons unknown
Dm G C
All were children like your own
[Verse 3]
Sons of tycoons, or sons from the farms
Dm G
All of the children ran from your arms
Dm F G Dm
Through fields of gold, through fields of ruin
G C
All of the children vanished too soon
[Verse 4]
In towering waves, in walls of flesh
Dm
Amid dying birds trembling with death
E C Ab
Sons of tycoons, sons from the farms
Dm G C
All of the children ran from your arms
[Verse 5]
Sons of your sons, sons passing by
Dm G
Children were lost in lullaby
Dm F G Dm
Sons of true love, sons of regret
G C
All of your sons you can never forget
[Verse 6]
Some build the roads, some wrote the poems
Dm
Some went to war, some never came home
E C Ab
Sons of your sons, sons passing by
Dm G C
Children were lost in lullaby
G C
In lullaby
In lullaby
