George Michael - Mothers Pride: chords

C#m      F#
Oh she knows
               B
She takes his hand
     G#m
And prays the child will understand
C#m               F#               B
At the door they watch the men go by
G#m
In the clothes that daddy wore
A
Mother’s pride
      F#/A#
Baby boy
     B
His fathers eyes
        G#m                A
He’s a soldier waiting for war
          F#/A#
Time will come
              F#
He’ll hold a gun
His father’s son

And as he grows
He hears the band
Takes the step from boy to man
And at the shore she waves her son goodbye
Like the man she did before
Mothers pride
Just a boy
His country's eyes
He's a soldier waving at the shore
And in her heart the time has come
To lose a son

And all the husbands, all the sons,
all the lovers gone
They make no difference
No difference in the end
Still hear the woman say your daddy died a hero
In the name of god and man
Mothers pride
Crazy boy
His lifeless eyes
He's a soldier now forevermore
He'll hold a gun till kingdom come
