Intro: Em - C - D - Bsus4 - Em - D - Bm - C



Verses:


Em               C    
 Well the key to my survival
    D             Bsus4
Was never in much doubt
    Em               D
The question was how I could keep sane
Bm                C
Trying to find a way out


Em                 C
 Things were never easy for me
         D                Bsus4
Peace of mind was hard to find
      D                    A
And I needed a place where I could hide
C                      G
Somewhere I could call mine


Em             C
I didn't think much about it
       D                         Bsus4
Til it started happening all the time
Em                         D
Soon I was living with the fear everyday
   Bm                     C
Of what might happen that night


Em                  C
I couldn't stand to hear the
             D
Crying of my mother
               Bsus4
And I remember when

              D     
I swore that, that would be the
            A           
Last they'd see of me
      C               G
And I never went home again


Bridge:

D                       D/E
 They say the time is a healer
           D                  D/E
And now my wounds are not the same
D                        D/E
 I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
  D                     D/E
I had to hear what he'd say
C/G                  G
 He sat me down to talk to me
D/A                             C/A
 He looked me straight in the eyes



Chorus:


He said:
D/G      D/C           D/Bm         D/C
   You're no son, you're no son of mine
D      C/D              G/D       C/D
   You're no son, you're no son of mine
G      D/G       C/G
   You walked out, you left us behind
G              D/G      C/G        D/G      
   And you're no son, no son of mine

G - D/G - C/G(high C)- G 

D/G          C/G                          D/G
    Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it

   Em7 - D/E - C/D(High C)- D
 C           D/C           C(High C)     D/C (High D)                      
 And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it

Em7                    C             D
You're no son, you're no son of mine
                   D
But where should I go,
    C
And what should I do
Em7                    C            
You're no son, you're no son of mine
D                             C           Em    
 But I came here for help, oh I came here for you

C - D - Bsus4 - Em - D - Bm - C



Verses:


         Em                   C
Well the years they passed so slowly
D                   Bsus4
I thought about him everyday
Em                     D
What would I do, if we passed on the street
B                    C
Would I keep running away


Em                    C
 In and out of hiding places
D                         Bsus4
Soon I'd have to face the facts
     D                    A
We'd have to sit down and talk it over
    C                     G
And that would mean going back


Bridge:

D/E                      E
They say the time is a healer
           D/E                  E
And now my wounds are not the same
  D/E                     E
I rang that bell with my heart in my mouth
  D/E                     E
I had to hear what he'd say

C/G                  G
 He sat me down to talk to me
D/A                             C/A
 He looked me straight in the eyes



Chorus:


He said:

   You're no son, you're no son of mine

   You're no son, you're no son of mine
G      D/G       C/G
   You walked out, you left us behind
G              D/G      C/G        D/G      
   And you're no son, no son of mine

G - D/G - C/G(high C)- G 

D/G          C/G                          D/G
    Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it

You're no son, you're no son of mine
                   D
But where should I go,
    C
And what should I do
Em7                    C            
You're no son, you're no son of mine
D                             C           Em    
 But I came here for help, oh I came here for you




                    C                D   
You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh
Bsus4              Em                C                D
You're no son - ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah ha yeah
             Bsus4                   Em           C          D         Bsus4
You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh, oh..
