Verse 1
[A]You raise your head, beat the sun
But your [E]boys they lie, so close to [D]you
Do you dare [F#m]get up? And [E]wake the two
Oh [A]Elias, I see you there, at work in the [E]daytime do you think you could,
[D]answer all the questions of the world
In just one [F#m]word, I think you [E]could.
[A]If you [E]die will I [F#m]get [E]word [D]that you're gone
[A]Or will I[E] hear it in [F#m]passing[E] [D]conversation
[A]Will I [E]stop short and, [F#m]fall [E]to the [D]ground
[A]Distance is [E]short when your [F#m]hand [E]carries what [D]your eye found
[A]Hold my [E]hand just one more [F#m]time, to see if you're [E]really gonna [D]meet me
[A]Hold my [E]hand just one more [F#m]time, to see if you're [E]really gonna [D]meet me
[A]Honest and Manuel well you know, they're at [E]school now
Getting the chance that, [D]their father's never seen
See what's [F#m]beyond, section [E]17
And in [A]10 years, when you look back at your [E]boys
well you know they've grown, way taller than the [D]tallest sugar [F#m]cane in the
[E]field
[A]If you [E]die will I [F#m]get [E]word [D]that you're gone

[D]And I see your wife, she [A]stands, [D]stooped over by the fire [E]outside
[D]And I see your boys, and [A]when they look up, [D]you know I think they've[E] got
their mother's eyes
[D]Cause she looks so proud, [A]she looks so happy, [D]she looks so proud, [E]she looks
so happy,
yeaahhh [A]If you [E]die will I [F#m]get [E]word [D]that you're gone
