Verse 2 (as Verse 1)

good morning son
twenty years from now
maybe we'll both sit down

and how i picked you up
and everything changed
it was pain
sunny days and rain
i knew you'd feel the same things

let me tell you what
       C5
the years go on and
G5
we're still fighting it
F5
we're still fighting it
       C       Fmaj7
you'll try and try
        C          Fmaj7  Fm
and one day you'll fly
 C        Fmaj7
away from me
