Faithful Son

Written by Patty Griffin

	  		    Intro:     Em      C      Em      C 


 Em 
 Oh my god, I cry in fear 
     C 
 Afraid you have forgot me here 
     D 
 Afraid you have forgotten one 
        C              Em            C 
 Your quiet, dull and faithful son 

    Em 
 I went to work, I worked all day 
          C 
 When I wanted to run, I stayed 
              D 
 I kept the promises I made 
              C         Em 
 I kept the promises I made 

 Em 
 Little children came and grew 
  C 
 Moved away and never knew 
  D 
 Who I was or who I am 
             C              Em 
 Well, they never knew this lonely man 

            C              G 
 And those mornings came stiff with rain 
             D                C 
 I thought the sun would never shine again 
         C                    G 
 With the sleeves of my old raincoat  
                   D              C 
 Stained with the salt of my own tears 

        C           G 
 And I never would tell you then 
     D            C 
 So I never will tell you now 
           C                  G 
 All the things that break an old man down 
      D                C 
 The real truth is, I don't know how 

  
 Em      C      Em      C      Em      C      Em      C 


 Em 
 Oh my god, I cry in fear 
     C 
 Afraid you have forgot me here 
     D 
 Afraid you have forgotten one 
        C               
 Your quiet, dull and faithful son 

         D 
 Who's seen the loneliest of days 
       C 
 And fought the dirtiest of ways 
           D 
 With the man inside who would have run away 
            C         Em 
 From the promises I made 


 Em      C      Em      C   D   Em 


 End on Em
