Teach Your Children
Graham Nash

Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young
Déjà Vu
1970

My band picked this song up as one of our first songs to do.
It's really easy and I know it so here it is.  The original
was found on OLGA and was transcribed by Ken Berczik.  He did
a great job, so please enjoy it.

INTRO:

D	G	D	A


D                  G
You who are on the road
            D                      A
Must have a code that you can live by
    D             G
And so become yourself
            D                   A
Because the past is just a good-bye


D                   G
Teach your children well
               D                  A
Their father's hell did slowly go by
    D                 G
And feed them on your dreams
             D                     A
The one they fix, the one you'll know by


D                         G                                D
  Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry
                         Bm    G
So just look at them and sigh
A               D
  And know they love you

G	 A	D


And you, of tender years
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by
And so please help them with your youth
They seek the truth before they can die


Teach your parents well
Their children's hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they fix, the one you'll know by


Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
