My Young Man

C         G    F      Am
My young man wears a frown
Am    F            D            
With his eyes all closed and his
Asus4       C
 head bowed down,
G         C         D
My young man never sleeps.
C    Asus4     E              Dm
Oh the rain it falls upon his back,
Dm        E              B   Am
The dust before his eyes is black,
F        D             Dm      
Oft the times, oft the times my 
C
young man weeps.

C        G     F      Am
My young man wears a coat,
G       F                 G
Once, long ago, a bonnie coat
G                   C          Em
Which my young man wore with pride.

C                               
Now I dress the coat all on his 
Dm
back,
G                   Em      Am
For love for him I will not lack,
Am             Dm                
But to see it now, that collier’s
                Em
 coat, I can’t abide.

C                          F
My young man, where’s he gone?
C     F      Dm           F     
Once in his eyes my whole world 
  G
shone
G       Am                 Dm
Now my young man he looks away.
Dm              Em       G
Man and wife we used to be
 G        C                    Am
Now he’s like a child upon my knee
F          Dm        G          
And in my arms I help my young 
            C
man through the day.

C                       F
A young girl no more am I
F                                 
But I shall not weep and I will 
   G
not cry,
G       Am                 Dm
For my young man needs me still.
Am           F    Em      G
If someone’s watching up above
G       C               Am    F
You’ll see how much my dear I love,
F    Asus4    Dm               
So leave him here, I need him 
G              C
now and always will.
C                F   Em      G
Oh if someone’s watching up above
G       C               Am     F
You’ll see how much my dear I love,
F         Am   Dm       G      
And If he must go, let your 
         C
best angels keep him well
