Faithful Son Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Meet me on the [G]edges of the [D]city,
[Bm]Meet me where the un
[G]derground runs out[D].
Bring a picnic [G]blanket and your [D]pity.
[Bm]A pen and paper so [G]I can
write things down.
[D]

[Verse 2]
[A]Mother, oh dear mother,
I wasn't [Em]jok ing when I said,
That [Bm]I plan to keep doing this
[G]until the day I'm [A]dead.
And I'm [D]not a mirror for you
[C]when you were young.
[G]But[A] I still [Em]remain your
[A]faithful [D]only son.
[G][D]

[Verse 3]
[D]Lately I've been [G]feeling
kind of fra[D]gile,
[Bm]Lately I've been [G]feeling
all worn out[D].
What would any [G]of us do,
be[D]fore the dreams that we had came to,
[Bm]What would there be [G]left
to dream about.
[D]

[Verse 4]
[A]Father, oh dear father,
I'm not try[Em]ing to reject,
[Bm]The values that you held like winning
[G]cards up to your [A]chest.
But I can[D]'t just do the [C]things that
you wish that you'd [G]done,[A]
Though I [Em]still remain your faith
[A]ful only son.

[Interlude 1]
[G][Em]
[D]The city,

[Verse 5]
[G]seems so still
When you're looking down,
[Em]from Highgate Hill[D].
There's nothing [G]left for us to say,
[D][Bm]
You taught me [G]everything that I [D]know,
You wouldn't mis[G]s me if I stayed,
[D][Bm]
You never [G]see me if I go.
[D]

[Verse 6]
[A]This is no confession no [Em]this is who I am
[Bm]Make me in your image so
you [G]have to understand,
[A]That I did[D] my best as
[C]told and so've become,
[G]You[A]'re loving an[Em]d you're
[A]faithful only son.
[D][G][D][G]
