My Father's Son

Ricky Skaggs

Capo 2

^DMy history is no secret it's ^Gwritten in the ^A7stones
In the ^Dhill beside this river rests my ^Gmother's gentle ^Dbones
And daddy there beside her home ^Gamong his next of ^A7kin
And their ^Dlegacy passed ^Gdown to me the son of mountain ^Dmen

Raised to be a miner by a ^Gminer's calloused ^A7hands
Passed my ^Dyouth between this mountains where I ^Ggrew to under^Dstand
That family was the word of God and ^Gfaith was its ^A7demand
And ^Dlife and death the same came from the ^Gcoal beneath this ^Dland

Well a ^A7rich man writes the ^Dbook of laws a ^A7poor man must de^Dfend
But the ^Ghighest laws are ^Dwritten on the hearts of honest ^Hmmen
^DIf that cup is passed to me to ^Gdo what must be ^A7done
When they ^Dlay me down remind them I was ^Gjust my father's ^Dson

I've walked among these people heard the ^Gstories that they ^A7tell
I've ^Dcrawled beside them in the mines and ^Gtouched the walls of ^Dhell
I've shared their sacred secrets known their ^Gtriumph and their ^A7pain
And ^Dright or wrong I'll stand with them on the ^Gfinal judgment ^Dday

They say God gives us comfort when the ^Gtime of trouble ^A7comes
They ^Dsay we'll know no share of peace till ^Gwe lay down our ^Dguns
But will my boy had the chance to do the ^Gthings I've never ^A7done
Or will ^Dhe like me be told that he must ^Gbe his father's ^Dson

Well a ^A7rich man writes the ^Dbook of laws a ^A7poor man must de^Dfend
But the ^Ghighest laws are ^Dwritten on the hearts of honest ^Hmmen
^DWhen that cup is passed to me to ^Gdo what must be ^A7done
On a ^Dchunk of coal just carve these words ^GI was just my father's ^Dson

    G                                          C              G
And right or wrong I'll stand with them on the final judgment day
