The Things We've Handed Down

by Marc Cohn

"The Rainy Season"

D A Bm G

I don't know much about you, I don't know who you are

D A Bm G

And we'd been doing fine without you but we could only go so far

D A Bm G

I don't know why you chose us, were you watching from above

D A Bm G D A G A

Is there someone there that knows us said we'd give you all our love

D A Bm G

I wonder who you'll look like will your hair fall down and curl

D A Bm G

Will you be a momma's boy or daddy's little girl

D A Bm G

Will you be a sad reminder of what's been lost along the way

D A Bm G D A G A

Maybe you can help me find her in the things you do and say

D A Bm G

Will you laugh just like your mother will you sigh like your old man

D A Bm G

Will some things skip a generation like I've heard they often can

A Bm D A G

Are you a poet or a dancer, a devil or a clown

D A Bm G A D A G

Or a strange new combination of the things we've handed down

D A Bm G

You may not always be so grateful for the way that you were made

D A Bm G

Maybe some feature of your father's that you'd gladly sell or trade

D A Bm G

And one day you may look at us and say that you were cursed

D A Bm G

But over time that line has been extremely well rehearsed

A Bm D A G

By our fathers and their fathers in some old and distant town

D A Bm G A D

From places no one here remembers come the things we've handed down
