Intro:
Dm Dm(maj7) C#aug Dm7 (x2)
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
Good morning day and how do you do
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
I wonder what will you do for me?
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
I should be on my way, I should be earning pay,
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
I should be all the things that I'm not -
Bbmaj7 (x13231@1) Am (x02210@1) Gm (355333@1) DmAnd (xx0231@1)I've tried on my own, now there's nothing to keep me at home,
Bbmaj7 (x13231@1) Am (x02210@1) Gm (355333@1) DmLike (xx0231@1)my Brother has too, got to move to get out of this view,
DmYou (xx0231@1)see they tell you to move around -
G/A (320203@1) Dm/A AIf (x02220@1)you can't find work in your own town.
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
As I rise from my bed I can hear the old man
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
Blaming Heaven and Mother for this
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
Thirty years with one firm, thirteen months redundant,
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
Yes I'd say that's unlucky for some -
Bbmaj7 (x13231@1) Am (x02210@1) Gm (355333@1) DmNow (xx0231@1)our tears fall like rain, as my Mother walks me to my train,
Bbmaj7 (x13231@1) Am (x02210@1) Gm (355333@1) DmWith (xx0231@1)a kiss and a wave - 'Come Home Weekends' that's if I can save.
DmI (xx0231@1)swear I'll take it out on the man -
G/A (320203@1) Dm/A AWho (x02220@1)ever devised this economy plan.
Dm Dm(maj7) C#aug Dm7 (x2)
Ebmaj7 (x43111@3) Bbmaj7All (x13231@1)the love in the world - can't put -
Ebmaj7 (x43111@3) Bbmaj7Dinner (x13231@1)on the table -
Abmaj7 (xx4321@3) Ebmaj7 (x43111@3) F/G (303211@1) G/AOh, (320203@1)all the hate that I feel no love could put right
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
Good morning day and how do you do
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
I wonder what will you do for me?
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
I should be on my way, I should be earning pay,
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
I should be all the things that I'm not -
Bbmaj7 (x13231@1) Am (x02210@1) Gm (355333@1) DmAnd (xx0231@1)I've tried on my own, now there's nothing to keep me at home,
Bbmaj7 (x13231@1) Am (x02210@1) Gm (355333@1) DmAll (xx0231@1)the love and the strength has been taken by this Government,
DmYou (xx0231@1)see they tell you to move around -
G/A (320203@1) Dm/A AIf (x02220@1)you can't find work in your own town.
Dm Dm(maj7) C#aug Dm7 (x2)
(guitar solo)
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
Father's in the kitchen, counting out coins,
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
Mother's in the bedroom, looking through pictures of her boys,
Dm (xx0231@1) Dm(maj7)
One is in London, looking for a job,
C#aug (x4322x@1) Dm7
The other's in Whitehall, looking for those responsible!
