       A word in your ear, from father to son
   Bm                   Em
  Hear the word that I say
C                    D                  G
  I fought with you, fought on your side
   Bm                    E
  Long before you were born

   G                     C
  Joyful the sound, the word goes around
        Am               D
  From father to son, to son...

C                           D
  And the voice is so clear, time after time it keeps
  G              Bm         Em
  Calling you, calling you on
C                           D
  Don't destroy what you see, your country to be
             G                Bm                E
  Just keep building on the ground that's been won

   G                               C
  Kings will be crowned, and the word goes around
        Am               D7
  From father to son, to son

  Won't you hear us sing

  Our family song
                   Ab E
  Now we hand it on

                             (D A)
  But I've heard it all before
E                                (D A)
  Take this letter that I give you
E                           (A)
  Take it sonny, hold it high
E                                        (D A)
  You won't understand a word that's in it

                 E                           D
  But you'll write it out again before you die (yeah yeah)
