[INTRO] [PERCY] N.C. Where is my mom? [CHIRON]

                       Am
Grover said she fought bravely,

      C
but a mortal woman against a minotaur...

[PERCY]

C
It wasn't a dream? She's really gone?

[CHIRON] N.C. I'm so sorry, Percy [PERCY]

F
Well, it's my fault!

F
She was trying to protect me

[CHIRON]

F
You mustn't blame yourself

[PERCY] N.C. You say the gods are real? N.C. So, how could they let that happen? [CHIRON] N.C. I'm afraid there are some questions N.C. only the gods themselves can answer. N.C. Look for their sign. [VERSE 1] [CHIRON]

E
You have to be patient

A                           B
A sign that the gods have a plan

  C#m                        B
I know that the future looks blurry

            A                       B
But, not to worry, just do what you can

         E
Yes, the gods are very real

            C#m
Though they often won't reveal

         A                          F#
Who they are, what they want, their design

     A
Have faith, keep your chin up

      B
We'll help you adjust

    G              A         E
And trust you will see their sign

[BRIDGE] [PERCY]

E
So if my dad's a god,

A
I'd like to know which one.

C
He's got a lot to answer for

             F                 Am
He showed no sign that he ever existed

A#                        C
No sign he might actually care

   Dm                       C
My mom raised me all on her lonesome

                   A#
When I would reach out

                     C
No one else would be there

               F
Well I want my birthday cards and fishing trips

Dm
Child support and homework tips

C             A#         G
Don't mean to whimper or whine

    A#                    C
The guy didn't need to be "Dad of the Year"

         G#                A#         F
But it's clear he could've shown us a sign

[INTERLUDE 1] [PERCY]

Dm    Am
So... so, who is he?

[CHIRON]

Am
It could be...

F                              Dm
that is to say, the prophecies suggest...

A#
But, that's impossible!

Am
See you at dinner, Percy!

[INTERLUDE 2] [LUKE]

G#          A#m
Tough first day?

B
I'm Luke.

[PERCY]

B
All this time,

B
I thought my dad was some dead—beat.

B
Turns out—

[LUKE]

G#
He's a dead—beat god!

A#m
I get how you feel.

B
Look, the gods are busy.

N.C. They have a lot of kids, N.C. and they don't always care.

                           C#
If you're one of the lucky ones—

[VERSE 2] [LUKE]

               F#
They'll send a sign

                D#m
if they want to claim you

  B                          C#
A sign to admit you're their own

[PERCY]

             D#m
And, if they don't?

[LUKE]

D#m             C#
Then no one can blame you

              B
For holding a grudge

               C#
So hey, you're not alone

[INTERLUDE 3] [LUKE]

G#m
I'm going to be your counselor.

F#
The Hermes cabin takes anyone

    B
who hasn't been claimed.

N.C. You know what that means?

      D
We're literally the reject cabin.

N.C.              C#         B
Welcome to the dysfunctional family.

[VERSE 3] [LUKE]

     E
When parents are distant

   C#m
Or seem non—existent

     B                          F#
Hang on, 'cause you're gonna be fine

  D                     E
I know it's a lot to be thinking about:

A                       F#
All of this awkward—ass darkness and doubt

   A
If you need a friend to help figure it out—

[BOTH]

G               A               E
Together, we'll search for your sign
