My Father's Son

Ricky Skaggs

Capo 2

^D#My history is no secret it's ^G#written in the ^B7stones
In the ^D#hill beside this river rests my ^G#mother's gentle ^D#bones
And daddy there beside her home ^G#among his next of ^B7kin
And their ^D#legacy passed ^G#down to me the son of mountain ^D#men

Raised to be a miner by a ^G#miner's calloused ^B7hands
Passed my ^D#youth between this mountains where I ^G#grew to under^D#stand
That family was the word of God and ^G#faith was its ^B7demand
And ^D#life and death the same came from the ^G#coal beneath this ^D#land

Well a ^B7rich man writes the ^D#book of laws a ^B7poor man must de^D#fend
But the ^G#highest laws are ^D#written on the hearts of honest ^Cmmen
^D#If that cup is passed to me to ^G#do what must be ^B7done
When they ^D#lay me down remind them I was ^G#just my father's ^D#son

I've walked among these people heard the ^G#stories that they ^B7tell
I've ^D#crawled beside them in the mines and ^G#touched the walls of ^D#hell
I've shared their sacred secrets known their ^G#triumph and their ^B7pain
And ^D#right or wrong I'll stand with them on the ^G#final judgment ^D#day

They say God gives us comfort when the ^G#time of trouble ^B7comes
They ^D#say we'll know no share of peace till ^G#we lay down our ^D#guns
But will my boy had the chance to do the ^G#things I've never ^B7done
Or will ^D#he like me be told that he must ^G#be his father's ^D#son

Well a ^B7rich man writes the ^D#book of laws a ^B7poor man must de^D#fend
But the ^G#highest laws are ^D#written on the hearts of honest ^Cmmen
^D#When that cup is passed to me to ^G#do what must be ^B7done
On a ^D#chunk of coal just carve these words ^G#I was just my father's ^D#son

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