Tom: F major
Verse 1
F
The navigator said to the engineer,
I think our radio's dead.
I can hear, but I can't send,
and there's bad weather ahead.
Gm
F
Gm
The pilot said to the co -pilot,
our right engine's gone.
F
But if we can make it over these mountains,
perhaps I can set her down.
All my children of the sun
Five hundred miles from nowhere
we belly -landed on a river
We bid a quick goodbye
to that ship of silver
Gm
Twenty -five piled out the window,
twenty reached the shore
Turned to see our metal birds
All my children of the sun
We found some floating logs,
we found some sharp stones
We cut some vines and made a raft,
Gm
F
it was our only hope
Gm
F
Gm
The navigator said he thought there was
a town somewhere downstream
F
So now each man tried to do his best
Gm
F
Gm
to paddle as a team
F
C
F
All my children of the sun
All except one young guy
Who kept arguing with the navigator
He said he'd read about a waterfall
We would come to sooner or later
Gm
F
Gm
At a river's bend he persuaded us
To bring our raft to beach
F
Gm
But a search party found the river smooth
F
Gm
F
As far as I could reach
Gm
F
C
Gm
F
All my children of the sun
Once again he persuaded us to stop
We cursed at the delay
Once again we found the river flowing
Bb
F
on the same old way
Gm
F
Gm
We said, shut up your arguing,
F
Gm
you give us all a pain
Bbm
Gm
F
Gm
F
Be con structive for a change
C
F
All my children of the sun
Still Egghead kept on talking
In that same long -winded way
We said if you won't paddle
Get the hell out of our way
Gm
F
We told him to go sit
Bbm
Gm
Then we strained to paddle harder
F
Gm
F
And then the river made a turn
All my children of the sun
Bb
F
One paddler heard the sound of tapping
What he saw when he did turn
Was egghead with a sharp stone
Cutting the vines that bound the stern
With a cry of rage the paddler
Leaped up to his feet
He swung his long pole
Knocked egghead into the deep
Gm
But now the logs were splaying out
F
Gm
F
The raft had come unbound
Gm
F
Gm
Like mad we paddled for the shore
F
Gm
F
Before we all would drown
Gm
F
All my children of the sun
Bb
F
A search party went out to find more vines
To tie the raft up tight
In twenty minutes they returned
Their faces pale with fright
Gm
They said a quarter mile down river,
Bbm
we found a waterfall,
Gm
F
it's over a hundred feet in height,
F
Gm
we'd none of us lived at all,
F
all my children of the sun.
Bb
F
And that is why on the banks
of a far off wilderness stream,
which none of us,
none of us will ever see again,
Gm
There stands a cross for someone
Gm
Hardly older than a boy
Who we thought was only
F
All my children of the sun.
