[Verse 1]

G        Am         G      Cm
Boys and girls will see in time
     G         Am        G        
That they were wrong to go
 Am

G           Am      G          Cm
Fires don't burn at home, like they
        G           Am
Used to burn, those nights
        G
Grew so long

[Chorus]
           C
The scattering

(all the children say)
             G
Will come again

(it's taken them away)
              C
No seeds to fall

(all the children say)
             G
No sons to blame
           D             G
As one by one they left home

[Verse 2]
           Am
Tired old men

     G        Cm
Spin tales of when
  G         Am
A man could work
             G                 Am
And hold his    head up high
G                Am
Ghosts roam this town
     G                             
With pockets full of rye they'd all
      Cm
 fall down
    G          Am           G
But soon their jars all ran dry

[Chorus]
           C
The scattering

(all the children say)
             G
Will come again

(it's taken them away)
              C
No seeds to fall

(all the children say)
             G
No sons to blame
            D            G
As one by one they left home

[Break]

G   Am   G   C   G   Am   G

[Chorus]
           C
The scattering

(all the children say)
           G
Has come again

(it's taken them away)
             C
No seeds to fall

(all the children say)
            G
Like better days
           C
The scattering

(all the children say)
           G
Has come again

(it's taken them away)
                   C
But if skies could fall

(all the children say)
              G
With harvest rain
            D
Then one by one...
              G      C   G   C  G
They'll come home
