[Verse 1]
F    A#         F          A#         F
We pray for our fathers, pray for our mothers
A#           F       C
Wishing our families well
F         A#           F            A#           F
We sing songs for the wishing, of those who are kissing
     A#         F         Am7
But not for the missing


[CHORUS 1]
                  Dm           Am
So this one’s for all the lost children
                Dm           Am
This one’s for all the lost children
               A#           Am                     Gm
This one’s for all the lost children, wishing them well
                 F
And wishing them home

[Verse 2]
     F    A#            F        A#           F
When you sit there addressing, counting your blessings
A#           F  C
Biding your time
      F   A#           F          A#          F
When you lay me down sleeping and my heart is weeping
A#              F     Am7
Because I’m keeping a place



[CHORUS 1]

This one’s for all the lost children, wishing them well
                 F
And wishing them home

[Bridge]
A#m               Fm
Home with their fathers,
               A#m                Fm
Snug close and warm, loving their mothers
          E                G#m
I see the door simply wide open
                 E  G#m     D#
But no one can find thee
