Suffer the Children

(Orzabal)

Transcribed by: Keith 

G
It's a sad affair,
G7
when there's no one there,
C                   G
He calls out in the night.
And it's so unfair,
G7
at least it seems that way,
C                     G
when you gave him his life.

    F
And all this time he's been getting you down,
             C
You ought to pick him up when there's no one around,
       F
And convince him,
        C
Oh just talk to him,
         F
Cause he knows in his heart you won't be home soon,
        C
And he's an only child in an only room
         F
And he's dependent on you
         C
Oh he's dependent on you


And it seems so strange,
That at the end of the day,
Making love can be so good,
But the pain of birth,
Oh what is it worth,
When it don't turn out the way that it should


Alt chords:  Verses- D D7 G     CHorus - C G

	Probably about a young single mother who works very hard (probably two jobs) to care for her child and subsquently becomes frustrated with herself; the song perhaps from a close friend's perspective.

	The message of this song is that children experience nightmares because they aren't allowed to be what they want during the day.

No Picture chris Wanna Be	#3 by chris valverde at Feb 13, 2004 at 5:24 PM EST
	Pain of childhjood neglect and how that has such a significant impact on life when you get older (TA psychotherapy and primal scream therapy)

No Picture James Average	#4 by James Newsome at Mar 16, 2006 at 1:06 PM EST
	It's pretty straightforeward, it's about a child living in a single-parent home who's not getting the attention he deserves. An unwanted, unplanned child living a lonely life .
