Love Of The Common People chords

Love Of The Common People

• A

A 
Living on free food tickets
Watering the milk from the hole in the roof
G
Where the rain came through
D        E 
What can we do?
A
Tears from your baby sister crying
C
Cause she doesn't have a dress
G
Without a patch for the party to go
D                E
Ah, but you know she'll get by because she's

A              D                 E 
Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's going to buy you a dream to cling to 
Mommy's gonna love you as much as she can, 
A G D  A G D 
and she can
(The key changes here) 
A
It's a good thing you don't have bus fare
It would fall through the hole in your pocket
G
And you'd lose it in the snow on the ground
D              E
Walkin' to town to find a job
A
Tryin' to keep your hands warm
But the hole in your shoe lets the snow come through
G
And it chills to the bone
D                 E 
Boy you better go home where it's warm
A               D                 E 
And you can live in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's goin' to buy you a dream to cling to
Mummy's goin' to love you as much as she can
 A G D A G D F A E B A E B 
And she can

(Change of Key)

B
Livin' on dreams ain't easy
But the closer the knit, the tighter the fit
A
And the chills stay away
E                      F
You take them in stride, family pride
B
You know faith is your foundation
A
With a whole lot of love and a warm conversation
And many a prayer
E                 F
Making you strong, where you belong

B             E           F 
Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's goin' to buy you a dream to cling to
Mummy's goin' to love you just as much as she can
F
Yeah
B              E           F
Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's goin' to buy you a dream to cling to
 B A E B A E B A E B 
Mummy's goin' to love you just as much as she can
Yeah
