E                              C#m
Conversation with the child who once believed in you
 E                          C#m 
How does one explain to him what it is you do
      E                  C#m 
He says Daddy Daddy please tell me it's not true
             B7/11                  A
What all the people are saying....saying about you


       E                                   C#m
There comes a time when one must face the life that you have led
           E                    C#m
That is a hard thing to do when lies is all that has been said
        E                                      C#m
And the blameless eyes of an innocent youth Is begging for you to tell the truth
            B7/11                A
It's such a hard way to learn....hard way to learn


     E                                 Db
This moment of truth will hurt for life
 B                                  A
Don't need to tell you that ain't right
E                                Db
Come now little boy don't you cry
B                                   A
'Cause the child in you is still alive

CHORUS
       E                                         C#m
There comes a time in this child's life when the boy becomes a man
E                               C#m
So many things from his past he now can understand
     E                                         C#m
Like all the times when Dad would leave and be gone for so long
    B7/11
And he thought everything was all right
    A
And he thought everything was all right


     E                                 Db
This moment of truth will hurt for life
 B                                  A
Don't need to tell you that ain't right
E                                Db
Come now little boy don't you cry
B                                   A
'Cause the child in you is still alive


     E                                 Db
This moment of truth will hurt for life
 B                                  A
Don't need to tell you that ain't right
E                                Db
Come now little boy don't you cry
B                                   A
'Cause the child in you is still alive
Such a hard way to learn......(REPETE)
