D                    
Rebel child won't you heed my warning 
C 
One of these days the rain'll come falling 
G 
Some of those sunshine blue sky mornings  
C            G         D 
Might just turn to grey 
 
Verse 1 
           A                                      D 
I understand why you do the things you do 
                A                               D 
There was a time when I was just like you 
            Bm                        G 
I know right now you think you know it all 
                                             A                    
There's no way you can break,  
A 
no way you can  
     C 
fall 
 
Chorus: 
D                
Rebel child won't you heed my warning 
C 
One of these days the rain'll come falling 
G 
Some of those sunshine blue sky mornings  
C             G        D 
Might just turn to grey 
D 
I've been there and I know what you're thinking 
C 
You're flying high but some day you'll blink and 
G 
That cloud you're on just might start sinking 
       C         G       D 
Don't wait til it's too late 
C G           D   
Oh Rebel Child 
 
Verse 2: 
           A                     D           
I know you can't learn from my mistakes 
                                                         A                       D 
You got your own road you've got to take 
                                                            Bm 
 
And they might look  
                        G 
like they're paved with gold 
          A 
Just remember that you'll have to reap  
A                          C 
All the seed you sow 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
              G 
Keep your feet on the ground 
            D 
One eye on heaven 
     G 
Do a lot of forgiving 
            D 
Not much forgetting 
      C                   G 
And remember that life is one big lesson 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
C G          D 
Oh Rebel Child 
C G          D 
Oh Rebel Child 
C G          D 
Oh Rebel Child
