Damien Dempsey - Sing all our cares away

^CMary loves the grouse, hides the ^Embottles round the house, She watches ^Fchatshows and the soaps, broken-^Ghearted but she copes, ^CMichael's out of work, feels he's ^Emsinking in the murk, He's uns^Fhaven and a mess, finds it ^Ghard some days to dress ^CStevie smashes the delf, cos he ^Emcan't express himself, He's co^Fnsumed by rage, like his ^Gfather at his age, ^CRits'a little child, have a ^Emlovely little smile, This means ^Fnothing to her father, because he's ^Gnever even seen her

We ^Fsing, sing all our cares ^Gaway ^FWe'll live, to fight another ^Gda^Gy

^CJoey's off the gear, he's been ^Emclean for half a year, He gets ^Fbored out of his mind, but he's ^Gtryin to toe the line ^CMaggie's in a chair, 'twas ^Emjoyriding put her there, She puts the ^Fkettle on the boil, and shes ^Galways got a smile

We ^Fsing, sing all our cares ^Gaway We'll l^Five, to fight another ^Gday We ^Fsing, sing all our cares ^Gaway, We'll l^Five, to love another^Em day, We grow ^Cstrong, from it ^Gall, We grow ^Fstrong, or we f^Gall, We grow ^Cstrong, from it ^Emall, We grow ^Fstrong, or we ^Gfall, We grow ^Cstrong.
