Em                                  G7 
In the month of June five years ago that's when I came to be 

Am                                      B7 
Though I'm not yet worldly wise my eyes can clearly see 

  Em                          G7 
I love my mom and daddy too I pray my soul to keep 

Am                            B7             Em 
I ask for a happy home when I lay me down to sleep 


                            G7 
Lately mommy cries at night she thinks that I won't hear 

B7 
When daddy said my name today he wiped away a tear 

  Em                                G7 
I know that something isn't right I see it in their eyes 

Am                                 B7             Em 
Oh how I wish it wasn't so but the truth can't be denied 


                                 G7 
I'm caught in the crossfire of a war that can't be won 

Am                          B7 
Mom calls me her little man daddy's only son 

  Em                               G7 
I love ‘em both but I can't choose which one to leave behind 

Am                               B7              Em 
I'm caught in the crossfire of a world that's so unkind 

  
                               G7 
Before you go to sleep tonight say a prayer for me 

Am                             B7 
I'm one of the millions from a broken family 

   Em                          G7 
My wish is but a simple one my needs they are but few 

Am                              B7             Em 
The promise of a happy home and love to see us through 


                                  G7 
I'm caught in the crossfire of a war that can't be won 

Am                          B7 
Mom calls me her little man daddy's only son 

  Em                               G7 
I love ‘em both but I can't choose which one to leave behind 

Am                               B7              Em 
I'm caught in the crossfire of a world that's so unkind 


                                 G7 
I'm caught in the crossfire of a war that can't be won 

Am                          B7 
Mom calls me her little man daddy's only son 

  Em                               G7 
I love ‘em both but I can't choose which one to leave behind 

Am                               B7              Em 
I'm caught in the crossfire of a world that's so unkind 


                                   G7 
I love ’em both but I can't choose which one to leave behind 

Am                               B7              Em 
I'm caught in the crossfire of a world that's so unkind
