[Verse]
Am*             Em*
Where have you wandered,
  Am*     Em*
My only child 
Am*         Em*         Am*  Em*
Why are you not coming back? 
Am*         Em*      Am*      Em*
Your mother is crying her eyes out 
   Am*        Em*
And I, in my dreams
           Am*   Em*
Hear your voice 

[Chorus]
Am                   C       Am
   Father, will you take me away 
Am                  C            D           Am
   Father will you take and save me from my fate 
Am                   C       Am
   Father, will you take me away 
Am                  C            D           Am* Em* Am* Em* Am* Em* Am* Em*
   Father will you take and save me from my fate 

[Verse]
Am        Em
Wanted to go
          Am            Em
Look for you A hundred times 
   Am           Em         Am  Em
But I couldn’t leave her alone 
     Am         Em        Am     Em
The end of the world ruined our home
     Am       Em        Am  Em 
Yet didn’t destroy our hope 

[Pre-Chorus]

E             Am
Acid rain is pouring down
G          Am
On the caravans of shadows
E                     Am
Once they used to be humans 
      G             Am
Dying of too much choice 
   E                 Am
Devoid of trust and empathy 
G             Am
They were passing each other 
E              Am
Now together, with raised hands 
    G               E         Am
In tears they call out at the sky 

[Chorus]
Am                   C       Am
   Father, will you take me away 
Am                  C            D           Am
   Father will you take and save me from my fate 
Am                   C       Am
   Father, will you take me away 
Am                  C            D          
   Father will you take and save me from my...

Am                  C            D           Am
   Father will you take and save me from my fate 
Am                   C       Am
   Father, will you take me away 
Am                  C            D           Am* Em* Am* Em* Am
