My Father's Son

Ricky Skaggs

Capo 2

^FMy history is no secret it's ^Bwritten in the ^C7stones
In the ^Fhill beside this river rests my ^Bmother's gentle ^Fbones
And daddy there beside her home ^Bamong his next of ^C7kin
And their ^Flegacy passed ^Bdown to me the son of mountain ^Fmen

Raised to be a miner by a ^Bminer's calloused ^C7hands
Passed my ^Fyouth between this mountains where I ^Bgrew to under^Fstand
That family was the word of God and ^Bfaith was its ^C7demand
And ^Flife and death the same came from the ^Bcoal beneath this ^Fland

Well a ^C7rich man writes the ^Fbook of laws a ^C7poor man must de^Ffend
But the ^Bhighest laws are ^Fwritten on the hearts of honest ^Dmmen
^FIf that cup is passed to me to ^Bdo what must be ^C7done
When they ^Flay me down remind them I was ^Bjust my father's ^Fson

I've walked among these people heard the ^Bstories that they ^C7tell
I've ^Fcrawled beside them in the mines and ^Btouched the walls of ^Fhell
I've shared their sacred secrets known their ^Btriumph and their ^C7pain
And ^Fright or wrong I'll stand with them on the ^Bfinal judgment ^Fday

They say God gives us comfort when the ^Btime of trouble ^C7comes
They ^Fsay we'll know no share of peace till ^Bwe lay down our ^Fguns
But will my boy had the chance to do the ^Bthings I've never ^C7done
Or will ^Fhe like me be told that he must ^Bbe his father's ^Fson

Well a ^C7rich man writes the ^Fbook of laws a ^C7poor man must de^Ffend
But the ^Bhighest laws are ^Fwritten on the hearts of honest ^Dmmen
^FWhen that cup is passed to me to ^Bdo what must be ^C7done
On a ^Fchunk of coal just carve these words ^BI was just my father's ^Fson

That family was the word of God and faith was its demand

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

They say God gives us comfort when the time of trouble comes
     G                                     C               G
They say we'll know no share of peace till we lay down our guns
