 6   -5  6   -5     5   5  -5  -5
Sons of the thief, sons of the saint
 6   6  -5  -5    6   -5  5   5  
Who is the child with no complaint
 6  -5   6   -5   6   -5   5 5
Sons of the great or sons unknown
 5   5   -5  5     5   -4   -4
All were children like your own
 6   6    -5    -5     6   -5   5    5
The same sweet smiles, the same sad tears
 6   6    -5   -5   -6  -6  6      6
The cries at night, the nightmare fears
 -6  6  -6   6      6   -5 -5
Sons of the great, sons unknown
-5  -5    5  -5    6    -5  -5
All were children like your own...

 But sons of tycoons or sons of the farms
 All of the children ran from your arms
 Through fields of gold, through fields of ruin
 All of the children vanished too soon
 In tow'ring waves, in walls of flesh
 Among dying birds trembling with death
 Sons of tycoons or sons of the farms
 All of the children ran from your arms...

 But sons of your sons or sons passing by
 Children we lost in lullabies
 Sons of true love or sons of regret
 All of the sons you cannot forget
 Some built the roads, some wrote the poems
 Some went to war, some never came home
 Sons of your sons or sons passing by
 Children we lost in lullabies...
