[Intro]
Em - C - D - Bsus4 - Em - D - Bm - C
[Versetto]
Em               C 
 Well the key to my survival 
    D             B 
Was never in much doubt 
    Em               D 
The question was how I could keep sane 
B                C 
Trying to find a way out
[Versetto]
Em                 C 
 Things were never easy for me 
         D                B 
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  
[Versetto]
Em             C 
I didn't think much about it 
       D                         B 
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
[Versetto]
Em                  C 
I couldn't stand to hear the 
             D 
Crying of my mother 
               B 
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
[Ponte]
D                       E 
 They say the time is a healer 
           D                  E 
And now my wounds are not the same 
D                        E 
 I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth 
  D                     E 
I had to hear what he'd say 
C                  G 
 He sat me down to talk to me 
D                             A 
 He looked me straight in the eyes
[Ritornello]
 
He said: 
D/      G              D         C 
 You're no son, you're no son of mine 
D/      G              D         C 
 You're no son, you're no son of mine 
G                   C       D 
You walked out, you left us behind 
G                  C9        D        G      G      C     C 
And you're no son, no son of mine  
C                                D          Em      C   D 
Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it 
 C                         C     D 
 And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it  
Em                    C             D 
You're no son, you're no son of mine 
                   D 
But where should I go, 
    C 
And what should I do 
Em                    C 
You're no son, you're no son of mine 
D                             C           Em 
 But I came here for help, oh I came here for you
[Strumentale]
C - D - Bsus4 - Em - D - Bm - C
[Versetto]
         Em                   C 
Well the years they passed so slowly 
D                   Bsus4 
I thought about him everyday 
Em                     D 
What would I do, if we passed on the street 
B                    C 
Would I keep running away
[Versetto]
Em                    C 
 In and out of hiding places 
D                         B 
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
[Ponte]
D                      E 
They say the time is a healer 
           D                  E 
And now my wounds are not the same 
            D            E 
I rang that bell with my heart in my mouth 
  D                     E 
I had to hear what he'd say  
C                  G 
 He sat me down to talk to me 
D                             Am7 
 He looked me straight in the eyes
[Ritornello]
 
He said: 
D/      G              D         C 
 You're no son, you're no son of mine 
D/      G              D         C 
 You're no son, you're no son of mine 
G                    C       D 
 You walked out, you left us behind 
G                   C9        D        G      G      C  D 
 And you're no son, no son of mine  
C                                D          Em        C   D 
Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it 
 C                         C     D 
 And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it  
Em                     C             D 
 You're no son, you're no son of mine 
                   D 
But where should I go, 
    C 
And what should I do 
Em                     C 
 You're no son, you're no son of mine 
D                             C           Em 
 But I came here for help, oh I was looking for you  
Em                    C                D 
You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh 
Bsus4              Em                C                D 
You're no son - ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah ha yeah 
             Bsus4                   Em           C          D         Bsus4 
You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh, oh...
