Teach your children

Song composer: Graham Nash

Lyrics author: Graham Nash

	D	G	D	A

	D	G
	You, who are on the	road,

	D
Must have a	code

	A2
That you can	live by.

	D	G
And	so become your	self,

	D
Because the	past

	A2
Is just a	goodbye.

	D	G
	Teach your children	well,

	D
Their father’s	hell

	A2
It slowly	goin’ by.

	D	G
And	feed them on your	dreams,

	D
The one they	picks,

	A2
The one you’ll	know by.

		D	G
		Don’t you ever ask them	why,

		D
	If they told you, you will	cry.

		Bm	G
	So just look at them and	sigh,

		A	D
		And know they	love you.

	G	D	A

	D	G
And	you, of tender	years,

	D
Can’t know the	fears

	A2
That your elders	grew by.

	D	G
And	so please help them with your	dreams,

	D
They seek the	trick

	A2
Before they	can die.

	D	G
	Teach your parents	well,

	D
Their children’s	hell

	A2
Will slowly	go by.

	D	G
And	feed them on your	dreams,

	D
The one they	picks

	A2
The one you’ll	know by.

		D	G
		Don’t you ever ask them	why,

		D
	If they told you, you will	cry.

		Bm	G
	So just look at them and	sigh,

		A	D
		And know they	love you.

	G	D	A	D
