Teach Your Children by Graham Nash

I looked at the archives and didn`t see this one there.

Bascially, it`s D, G, and A with a Bm thrown in on the last line
of each verse.

In several places, you can play around with the A chord on the
B string. The pattern is A Asus A A* A. I use A* because I forget the
name. The chord structures are:

E A D G B E
A 0 0 2 2 2 0
Asus 0 0 2 2 3 0
A* 0 0 2 2 0 0


INTRO: D G D A

D G
You who are on the road
D A
Must have a code that you can live by
D G
And so become yourself
D A
Because the past is just a good-bye.


D G
Teach your children well,
D A
Their father`s hell did slowly go by,
D G
And feed them on your dreams
D A
The one they picks, the one you`ll know by.


D G D
Don`t you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
Bm G A
So just look at them and sigh
D G A D
and know they love you.


And you, of tender years,
Can`t know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.

Teach your parents well,
Their children`s hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you`ll know by.


Don`t you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.
