E5                              C#5
Conversation with the child who once believed in you
 E5                          C#5 
How does one explain to him what it is you do
      E5                  C#5 
He says Daddy Daddy please tell me it`s not true
             B5                  A5
What all the people are saying....saying about you


       E5                                   C#5
There comes a time when one must face the life that you have led
           E5                    C#5
That is a hard thing to do when lies is all that has been said
        E5                                      C#5
And the blameless eyes of an innocent youth Is begging for you to tell the truth
            B5                A5
It`s such a hard way to learn....hard way to learn


     E5                                 Db5
This moment of truth will hurt for life
 B5                                  A5
Don`t need to tell you that ain`t right
E5                                Db5
Come now little boy don`t you cry
B5                                   A5
`Cause the child in you is still alive

CHORUS
       E5                                         C#5
There comes a time in this child`s life when the boy becomes a man
E5                               C#5
So many things from his past he now can understand
     E5                                         C#5
Like all the times when Dad would leave and be gone for so long
    B5
And he thought everything was all right
    A5
And he thought everything was all right


     E5                                 Db5
This moment of truth will hurt for life
 B5                                  A5
Don`t need to tell you that ain`t right
E5                                Db5
Come now little boy don`t you cry
B5                                   A5
`Cause the child in you is still alive


     E5                                 Db5
This moment of truth will hurt for life
 B5                                  A5
Don`t need to tell you that ain`t right
E5                                Db5
Come now little boy don`t you cry
B5                                   A5
`Cause the child in you is still alive
Such a hard way to learn......(REPETE)
