From: * (CSRC) TAB Transcription by Luis Ferreira Lyrics were posted by someone (?) else, but they were corrected by me. Well, at least I changed them... :) The chords to the strummed part were left unchanged, everything else was replaced by TAB. (Last time I forgot to mention the chords were not my own) Thanks to Matthias Rohe ( * ) for his comments and suggestions! { Intro }e-------------|-------------|-----

feeling strong I see it in her face that's turned to ice And when she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice And now I know what they're saying as our sun begins to fade And we made our love on

the lyrics just like you did before } Father made my history He fought for what he thought would set us somehow free They taught me what to say in school I learned it half by heart but now that's torn
