[Verse 1]
A Father, oh, father please hear me A My song is a cry of desperation D A All of the words I hear have lost their meaning A My life is a well of confusion A Drowned out by the sound of the lost and lonely D A Only the voice inside speaks your name to me
[Chorus]
E A If they only knew the things that I know E A If they only could see the things that I see E A If they only knew the things that I know E A If they only could see the things that I see
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
E A If they only knew the things that I know (You are only every thing that I know) E A If they only could see the things that I see
[Verse 2]
A My brothers at opposite tables A Like fire and water against each other D A Only a fool can't see the obvious ending A Are we as ashes to wildwood? A Is life just a fire that can only consume us? D A Is there no vision of love to bind us together?
[Chorus]
E A If they only knew the things that I know (You are only every thing that I know) E A If they only could see the things that I see E A If they only knew the things that I know (You are only every thing that I know) E A If they only could see the things that I see E A If they only knew the things that I know (You are only every thing that I know) E A If they only could see the things that I see E A If they only knew the things that I know (You are only every thing that I know) E A If they only could see the things that I see
