No Son Of Mine Chords

(ver. 1)
Genesis
[Intro]
| Em | C | D | Bsus4 | 
| Em | D | Bm | C |



[Verse]
         Em           C    
Well the key to my survival
    D              Bsus4
Was never in much doubt
    Em                D
The question was how I could keep sane
Bm                    C
Trying to find a way out
Em                  C
 Things were never easy for me
         D                Bsus4
Peace of mind was hard to find
      D                    A
And I needed a place where I could hide
C                      G
Somewhere I could call mine


[Verse]
Em                    C
 I didn't think much about it
       D                         Bsus4
Til it started happening all the time
Em                         D
Soon I was living with the fear everyday
   Bm                     C
Of what might happen that night
Em                   C
 I couldn't stand to hear the crying
      D                     Bsus4
Of my mother and I remember when
              D     
I swore that, that would be the
            A           
Last they'd see of me
      C               G
And I never went home again


[Bridge]
D/E                     E
 They say the time is a healer
           D/E                E
And now my wounds are not the same
D/E                      E
 I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
  D/E                   E
I had to hear what he'd say
C/G                G
 He sat me down to talk to me
D/A                           Am7
 He looked me straight in the eyes, he said ...



Chorus:
G/D      C/D            Bm/D      C/D
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
D        C/D            Bm/D      C/D
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
G     D/G             C/G
  You walked out, you left us behind
G            D/G            C/G       D/G    | G D/G | C/G G | 
  And you're no son, you're no son of mine

D/G      C/G                          D/G     | Em7 D/E | C/D D |
 Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
C           D/C           C     D/C      [ Em7 ]
 And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it

Em7                     C
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
D
  But where should I go,
    C/D          [ Em7 ]
And what should I do
Em7                     C
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
D
  But I came here for help
     C/D         [ Em ]
Oh I came here for you


[Interlude]
| Em | C/E | D/E | Esus2 | 
| Em | D/E | Bm/E | C/E C |


[Verse]
         Em                   C
Well the years they passed so slowly
  D                       Bsus4
I thought about him every day
Em                     D
What would I do, if we passed on the street
Bm                    C
Would I keep running away
Em            C
In and out of hiding places
D                         Bsus4
Soon I'd have to face the facts
     D                    A
We'd have to sit down and talk it over
    C                     G
And that would mean going back


[Bridge]
D/E                     E
 They say the time is a healer
           D/E                E
And now my wounds are not the same
D/E                      E
 I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
  D/E                   E
I had to hear what he'd say
C/G                G
 He sat me down to talk to me
D/A                           Am7
 He looked me straight in the eyes, he said ...



Chorus:
G/D      C/D            Bm/D      C/D
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
D        C/D            Bm/D      C/D
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
G     D/G             C/G
  You walked out, you left us behind
G            D/G            C/G       D/G    | G D/G | C/G G | 
  And you're no son, you're no son of mine

D/G      C/G                          D/G     | Em7 D/E | C/D D |
 Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
C           D/C           C     D/C      [ Em7 ]
 And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it

Em7                     C
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
D
  But where should I go,
    C/D          [ Em7 ]
And what should I do
Em7                     C
  You're no son, you're no son of mine
D
  But I came here for help
     C/D           [ Em ]
Oh I was looking for you


[Outro]
Em                     C                D             Bsus4
 You're no son, you're no son of mi-i-i-ine oh oh oh - no son
        Em           C                D
Ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah ha yeah
              Bsus4
You're no son, you're no son of mine
Em     C       D       Bsus4 [ Em ]
   Oh, oh - oh oh - oh oh- oh oh
Em     C       D       Bsus4 [ Em ]
   Oh, oh - oh oh - oh oh - oh oh
Em     C       D       Bsus4 [ Em ]
   Oh, oh - oh oh - oh oh- oh oh
