Am
This is a song for a son
C                      D       F
This is a song for a sailor
   E                   E7
The best I never had
Am
This is a song for a kin
C                      D
This is the song for a tailor
     F
Who stitched up my old heart
     E                        E7
Who stitched up my old heart

   Am    C   D     F      E                E7             Am
And I, I am one of many, many more to come, many more to come
   C  D      F     E                  E7           Am
I am one of many, many more to come, many more to come

The kind that don't return - to the nest

Who flew into the sun

Never to return

Never to return
