The Only Child – Jackson Browne (Album: The Pretender)
FBoy of mine
As your F/Afortune comes to Bbcarry you A/C#down the line
And you Dmwatch as the Am/Cchanges unBbfold
And you Dmsort among the Am/Cstories you've been Bbtold
If some Fpieces of the A/C#picture are hard to Dmfind
Bb Bb/C
And the answers to your questions are hard to hold
Take good Bbcare of your mother
When you're Fmaking up your mind
Should one Dmthing or another Amtake you from beChind
Though the Dmworld may make you F/Chard and wild
And detBbermine how your lFife is styled
When you've Dmcome to feel that Cyou're the only G7/Bchild Bb
Take good Bbcare of your brother F
BbLet the disappointments pass
FLet the laughter fill your glass
Let your Dmillusions last Cuntil they Bbshatter
BbWhatever you might hope to find
AFmong the thoughts that Dmcrowd your mind
TFhere won't be many that ever really Cmatter
But take good Bbcare of your mother
And reFmember to be kind
When the Dmpain of another Amwill serve you to reCmind
That there are Dmthose who feel themsF/Celves exiled
On Bbwhom the fortune Fnever smiled
And upDmon whose life the Cheartache has been G7/Bpiled Bb
They're just Bblooking for another
Lonely Fchild
|Bb9 |Bb9 |F |F |
|Bb9 |Bb9 |F |F |
And Bbwhen you've found aBdimnother soul
Who F/Csees inA/C#to your ownDm
Take good Bbcare of each other F
|Bb |Bb |F |F | repeat & fade
