http://www.showofhands.co.uk/ Downtuned 2 semitones from standard(DGCFAD) Wooooah x 2
AmWorking in the rain, Ccutting up wood, Git didn’t do my little brother much good AmLost two fingers in a Cchainsaw bite, Gall he does now is drink and fight FSells a bit of grass, Ghots up AmcarsDsus2, talks of travel, neveFr gets far FLoved his kids, Gleft his Amwife, an eDsus2veryday story of cFountry life
AmAnd the red brick cottage, where CI was born, is the eGmpty shell of a holiday home AmMost of the year, there’Cs no one there, theG village is dead and they don’t care FNow we live on theG edge of Amtown, Dsus2haven’t been back since thFe pub closed down FOne man’s familGy pays thAme priceDsus2, for another man’s visionF of country life
Wooooah x 2 (Chords as above) And my old man is eighty four, his generation won the war He left the farm, forever when they only kept on one in ten Land and gentry, county snobs, where were you when they lost their jobs Noone marched or subsidised to save a country way of life I'm singing wooooah x 2 (Break.)
AmSilent fields Empty lanes GDrifting smoke Distant flames AmPicture postcard Fields on fire GCattle burning in funeral pyres
FOut to graze, they lGook so sAmweet, Dsus2we ate the blood we wore tFhe meat FBuy me a beer i’lGl take myAm knife anDsus2d cut you slice of couFntry life
I’m singing Wooooah x 4 (back to verse chord structure) If you want cheap food, well here’s the deal, family farms are brought to heel By the hammer blows , scythes and scale, foot and mouth; the final nail A coffin of our English dream, lies out on the village green Where I grew balance, cap in hand, strip this green and pleasant land Of meadow, woodland, hedgerow, park What remains gets built upon No trains, no jobs, no shops, no pubs, no where to run Country life country life country life (pause)
It’s a little bit of country -Am life
