The Ark - Father of a Son (2002) Chords 5/2-2015 by Jon Malmin ([email protected]) Tuning: Standard E The part right before the first chorus is a bit tricky, so listen to the song to learn the rhythm. I simply use power chords for that, though there are probably other ways to do it even better! [Intro]: (No chords) One day I will become, the father of a son! F D Esus4 E Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuuuu-jaaaah! D D A D D A [Verse 1]: A D Well, I've had my share A D Of remarks about my rear C F But I know it's all 'bout fear B E And that you'd probably love it if you'd only dare A D And I know a thousand girls who'd go wild A D If I'd ask them to bear my child C F So I don't see why you'd even care B E5 F#5 G5 G5 G#5 To prevent me, 'cause I can swear [Chorus]: A D/A That one day I will become G/A D/A A The father of a son F D Esus4 E Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuuu-jaaah! A D/A One day I will become G/A D/A A The father of a son F D Esus4 E Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuuu-jaaah! [Verse 2]: A D And you're totally fogged in your head A D If you were serious right now when you said C F That ”it's because they will be bullied in school” B E 'Cause that means you let the bullies set the rules A D And you can legislate and oppress A D And you can make my life a mess C F But you can't change the way I feel B E Or convince me that my wish is unreal A D And you can strike me down and fence me A D And you can claim that there’s opinion against me C F But I'll still win over you, Sir B (No chord, drum fill) 'Cause if you fight love you're always a loser [Chorus]: A D/A And one day I will become G/A D/A A The father of a son F D Esus4 E Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuuu-jaaah! A D/A One day I will become G/A D/A A The father of a son F D Esus4 E Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuuu-jaaah! [Bridge]: F Dm And I may be gay Am Em But I can tell you straight away F Em Dm B Esus4 E That I'll become a better father than all of you anyway (So listen!) [Outro]: A D/A One day I will become G/A D/A A The father of a son F D Esus4 E (song fades out, keep playing E) Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuuuu-jaaaah!
