Verses:


            
 Well the key 

       
to my survival
             
Was never in m

    
uch doubt
            
The question w

       
as how I could

 keep sane
            
Trying to find

    
 a way out


            
 Things were n

     
ever easy for 

me
             
Peace of mind 

            
was hard to fi


nd
             
And I needed a

             
 place where I

 could hide
             
Somewhere I co

         
uld call mine


            
I didn't think

 
 much about it
             
Til it started

              
 happening all

     
 the time
            
Soon I was liv

             
ing with the f

ear everyday
            
Of what might 

            
happen that ni

ght


            
I couldn't sta

      
nd to hear the
             
Crying of my m

other
              
And I remember

 
 when

              
I swore that, 

     
that would be 

the
             
Last they'd se

          
e of me
             
And I never we

        
nt home again


Bridge:

             
 They say the 

          
time is a heal

er
             
And now my wou

              
nds are not th

  
e same
             
 I rang the be

           
ll with my hea

rt in my mouth
             
I had to hear 

          
what he'd say
           
 He sat me dow

       
n to talk to m

e
           
 He looked me 

              
straight in th

    
e eyes



Chorus:


He said:
        
   You're no s

          
on, you're no 

        
son of mine
          
   You're no s

           
on, you're no 

      
son of mine
          
   You walked 

   
out, you left 

us behind
             
   And you're 

        
no son, no son

             
 of mine

 -  - /G(high )-  

          
    Oh, his wo

rds how they h

              
urt me, I'll n


ever forget it

    -  - /D(High )- 
            
 And as the ti

me, it went by

(      
, I lived to r

/ (                       
egret it

           
You're no son,

             
 you're no son

         
 of mine
              
But where shou

     
ld I go,
    
And what shoul

d I do
           
You're no son,

             
 you're no son

        
 of mine
             
 But I came he

              
re for help, o

             
h I came here 

    
for you

Verses:


            
Well the years

              
 they passed s

  
o slowly
             
I thought abou

      
t him everyday
            
What would I d

         
o, if we passe

d on the stree

t
             
Would I keep r

       
unning away


            
 In and out of

        
 hiding places
             
Soon I'd have 

            
to face the fa


cts
             
We'd have to s

            
it down and ta

lk it over
             
And that would

            
 mean going ba

ck
