The Things We`ve Handed Down
by Marc Cohn
The Rainy Season

D A Bm G
I don`t know much about you, I don`t know who you are
D A Bm G
And we`d been doing fine without you but we could only go so far
D A Bm G
I don`t know why you chose us, were you watching from above
D A Bm G D A G A
Is there someone there that knows us said we`d give you all our love


D A Bm G
I wonder who you`ll look like will your hair fall down and curl
D A Bm G
Will you be a momma`s boy or daddy`s little girl
D A Bm G
Will you be a sad reminder of what`s been lost along the way
D A Bm G D A G A
Maybe you can help me find her in the things you do and say


D A Bm G
Will you laugh just like your mother will you sigh like your old man
D A Bm G
Will some things skip a generation like I`ve heard they often can
A Bm D A G
Are you a poet or a dancer, a devil or a clown
D A Bm G A D A G
Or a strange new combination of the things we`ve handed down


D A Bm G
You may not always be so grateful for the way that you were made
D A Bm G
Maybe some feature of your father`s that you`d gladly sell or trade
D A Bm G
And one day you may look at us and say that you were cursed
D A Bm G
But over time that line has been extremely well rehearsed
A Bm D A G
By our fathers and their fathers in some old and distant town
D A Bm G A D
>From places no one here remembers come the things we`ve handed down
