Home and done it[Cm]'s just begun
His heart w[D#]eighs more, more than it [Fm]ever did before
[Cm]What has he done? God help my son
Hey, s[D#]tay a while, I'll stay [Fm]up
[Cm]No sugar is enough to bring sweetness to his cup
I know s[D#]orrow tastes the s[Fm]ame on any tongue[Cm]
[Fm]How was I to feel it
When a g[Ab]un was in my hands
And I'd w[C#]aited for so l[Ab]ong
[Fm]How was I to see straight
In the d[Ab]ust and blinding sun
Just a p[C#]air of boots on the g[Ab]round[D#]
[Cm]On the screen the young men die
The children c[D#]ry in the r[Fm]ubble of their lives
[Cm]What has he done? God help my son
Hey, s[D#]tay a while, I'll stay [Fm]up
The v[Cm]olume pumped right up is not enough to drown it out
I hear "M[D#]ama" sounds the s[Fm]ame in any tongue[Cm]
[Fm]How am I to see you
When my f[Ab]aith stands in the way
And the w[C#]ailing is long [Ab]done
[Fm]How am I to know you
With a j[Ab]oystick in my hand
When the c[C#]all to arms has [Ab]come [D#]
His heart w[D#]eighs more, more than it [Fm]ever did before
[Cm]What has he done? God help my son
Hey, s[D#]tay a while, I'll stay [Fm]up
[Cm]No sugar is enough to bring sweetness to his cup
I know s[D#]orrow tastes the s[Fm]ame on any tongue[Cm]
