Misc Originals – Charlie - Child Of Yesterday (Guitar)

A      D    A
Born into a land of joy

    F#m    F#mmaj7   Dmaj7
but sorrow takes its place

C#m       Bm
people go, and now he knows

     E            Esus4     E
what kind of world it is to be

A         D       A
Tries to find his way back down

    F#m    F#mmaj7 Dmaj7
the beaten country road

C#m                      Bm
Though sticks and stones may break his bones

     E              Esus4       E
the words will never change his days

A  Amaj7 A7         D
I...      am just a child

A  Amaj7 A7           D
I...      am just the son

C#m          Bm     E     A      Asus4 A Asus4
I'm just the son of yesterday...

A     D       A
Even when the rain falls down

    F#m       F#mmaj7 Dmaj7
The show must still go on

C#m           Bm          E
Singing songs and writing ones

              A                   Asus4 A Asus4
that hold the tears back from his eyes

    A        D     A
And when the final curtain call

F#m       F#mmaj7    Dmaj7
takes his loved ones in...

C#m          Bm            E
look at him, and on a whim

              A  Asus4 A Asus4
He'll say goodbye

A   Amaj7 A7                 D
I...         Was just just a child

A   Amaj7 A7              D
I...         Was just the son

C#m          Bm     E      A  Asus4 A
Was just the son of yesterday...

D              E
And if you had seen me then,

F#m             F#mmaj7    B7
maybe you could start to comprehend

       D                    Dm           A  Asus4  A  Asus4  A
just what it means, what it all means to me
