Teach Your Children

[D] [G] [D] [A]

[D]You who are on the [G]road
Must have a [D]code that you can l[A]ive by
And [D]so become your[G]self
Because the [D]past is just a [A]goodbye.
[D]Teach your children w[G]ell,
Their father's [D]hell did slowly [A]go by
And[D] feed them on your [G]dreams
The one they [D]picked, the one you'll [A]know by.

(beware that tempo changes)
[D]Don't you ever ask them [G]why, if they told you, you
would [D]cry,So just look at them and [Bm]sigh [G]    [A]
and know they l[D]ove you.  [G]    [A]
And [D]you, of tender y[G]ears,Can't know
the [D]fears that your elders [A]grew by,And so [D]please help them
with your [G]youth,They seek the [D]truth before they [A]can die.
[D]Teach your parents [G]well,Their
children's [D]hell will slowly [A]go by,And fe[D]ed them on
your dr[G]eamsThe one they p[D]icked,  the one you'll k[A]now by.

(tempo changes)
[D]Don't you ever ask them [G]why, if they told

and k[D]now they love you    [G]       [A]
    strum [D]
and know they love you.
