[Verse]
Eb Eb7/G I'll catch the tramline in the morning Ab With your leave Van Bushell said Bb7 He had further heard the cock crow Ab Eb As he stumbled out the shed Eb7 Then blind Joseph came towards him Ab With a shotgun in his arms Bb He said you'll pay me twenty dollars Ab Eb Before you leave my farm Bb Van Bushell saw the hook Ab Eb Which replaced Joseph's hand Ab He said now calm you down my brother Bb Eb Let's discuss this man to man Ab It's no good you getting angry Eb G/D Cm Eb/Bb We must try to act our age Ab Bb You're pursuing your convictions Bb Eb Like some hermit in a cage
[Chorus]
Eb F7 You're the son of your father Ab Eb Try a little bit harder F7 Bb7 Do for me as he would do for you Eb F7 With blood and water bricks and mortar Ab7 Eb He built for you a home Bb/D Cm You're the son of your father Ab Eb So treat me as your own
[Verse]
Eb Eb7/G Well slowly Joseph well he lowered the rifle Ab And he emptied out the shells Bb7 Van Bushell he came towards him Ab Eb He shook his arm and wished him well Eb7 He said now hey blind man that is fine Ab But I sure can't waste my time Bb So move aside and let me go my way Ab Eb I've got a train to ride Ab Well Joseph turned around Eb G/D Cm Eb/Bb His grin was now a frown Ab Bb He said let me just refresh your mind Bb Eb Your manners boy seem hard to find
[Chorus]
Eb F7 You're the son of your father Ab Eb Try a little bit harder F7 Bb7 Do for me as he would do for you Eb F7 With blood and water bricks and mortar Ab7 Eb He built for you a home Bb/D Cm You're the son of your father Ab Eb So treat me as your own
[Verse]
Eb Eb7 Well there's two men lying dead as nails Ab On an East Virginia farm Bb For charity's an argument Ab Eb That only leads to harm Eb7 So be careful when they're kind to you Ab7 Don't you end up in the dirt Bb7 Just remember what I'm saying to you Ab Eb And you likely won't get hurt
[Chorus]
Eb F7 You're the son of your father Ab Eb Try a little bit harder F7 Bb7 Do for me as he would do for you Eb F7 With blood and water bricks and mortar Ab7 Eb He built for you a home Bb/D Cm You're the son of your father Ab Eb So treat me as your own
