Intro: G 

verse 1: 
                          
Sonny lives on a farm on a wide open space 
                                   C           G 
You can take off your sneakers and give up the race 
        D 
You can lay down your head by a sweet river bed 
      C                                   G   D 
Sonny always remembers the words his Mama said___ 

 
      G 
Sonny don't go away, I'm here all alone 
                          C           G 
Your daddy's a sailor who never comes home 
        D                                          
And the nights get so long and the silence goes on 
    C                                  G   D 
I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong 


verse 2: 
      G 
Sonny carries a load though he's barely a man 
                                          C            G 
There ain't all that much to do, still he does what he can 
       D                                          
And he watches the sea from a room by the stairs 
        C                                            G             D 
And the waves keep on rolling, they've done that for years and for years 

 
      G 
Sonny don't go away, I'm here all alone 
                          C           G 
Your daddy's a sailor who never comes home 
        D                                          
And the nights get so long and the silence goes on 
    C                                     G   D 
I'm feeling so tired and I'm not all that strong 


verse 3: 
       G 
It's a hundred miles to town, Sonny's never been there 
                                  C                G 
But he goes to the highway and he stands there and stares 
        D                                          
And the mail comes at four and the mailman is old 
      C                                          G    D 
Sonny still dreams his dreams full of silver and gold___ 


verse 4: 
        G 
Sonny's dreams can't be real, they're just stories he's read 
                                             C             G 
They're just stars in his eyes, they're just dreams in his head 
       D                                          
And he hungers inside for that wide world outside 
       C                                                   G    D 
But he knows it can't hold him, though he's tried and he's tried___ 

 
      G 
Sonny don't go away, I'm here all alone 
                          C           G 
Your daddy's a sailor who never comes home 
        D                                          
And the nights get so long and the silence goes on 
    C                                  G   D 
I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong

Your daddy's a sailor who never comes home 
        D                                          
And the nights get so long and the silence goes on 
    C                                     G   D   C   G 
I'm feeling so tired and I'm not all that strong
