Work Like You Can

• D

Intro: 
D   A   G  X3 

1st Verse: 
D                         Em 
Nothing'll get lost if we work like we can 
         A                     G 
Till the smell of the earth is worn into our hands 
      D          
And I promise you something 
       Em 
You'll never get nowhere 
       A                    G 
If you only ask questions of love 

2nd Verse: 
Long ago people came to this town 
To build their lives out of what they found 
And now the town's a ruin 
And the dirt on the ground 
Is mixed in with the ashes of love 


D                      A 
Gather with others and work like you can 
G                      Em 
To live like you can 

3rd Verse: 
You can keep your mouth shut better than I can 
Accept and obey every law in this land 
And when the wind blows your wages 
Right out of your hands 
You'll accept that wind 
Doesn't blow around love 

Chorus x2: 
Gather with others and work like you can 
To live like you can 

Bridge:  
A            A/G 
In spite of, in spite of 
G 
Money, position and power 
A            A/G 
All the important things 
G 
I'm told we should be dreaming of 

4th Verse:  
The seasons are fixed with sun 
Just like an old stone that'll never be thrown 
Soon the spring will come 
Like a distant object of love 

5th Verse  
And the spring tide and neap tide 
Bring a rhythm to the land 
With the oil on the saw 
We can work like we can 
What you lack in ability 
You can gain pretty simply 
Ignore the riches 
The riches of love 

Chorus x 4: 
Gather with others and work like you can 
To live like you can 

Coda: 
D  A  G  Em x4 

Chorus x 2: 
Gather with others and work like you can 
To live like you can 

Outro: 
D  A  G x 4  
D
