couldnt find chords online , so i figured some out . some of them might be wrong : p
the chords don’t match up with the lyrics , but the meter is pretty straightforward
so it’ll be easy when you listen to it .

D – E – G – A
verse 1 :

my son , my son , why are you striving ,
G D/F# Em A

G D/F# Em D D/C# Bm
for when i hear the praises start , i want to rain upon you ,
