F#m To my father what of your sons? A All of your children Even the ones E Sent out to martyr To face the gun D Precious bodies opposed to bombs Chorus: D Bm Led on led on E To take the path Bm Where our bright future E Is in our past To my father what of reason? Say what you will Believe what you want The record shows what we are not Our true desires Not our good thoughts Chorus To my father what have you done? To the children Born innocent But come to harm For dreams of glory And just a line in history Chorus To my father what good may come? To let the children Walk alone To fear to fail And need no savior To be at peace in our true nature Chorus: Lead on Lead on Oh clear the path So our bright future May come to pass May come to pass May come to pass You can simplify chords by removing barre
