Love of the Common People

Love of the Common People: Chords

LA
Living on free food tickets

Water in the milk
           
From a hole in the roof
          
Where the rain came through
             RE   MI
What can you do, hmmm?
  LA
Tears from your little sister

Crying because she doesn't have
 
A dress without a patch
         
For the party to go
           RE           MI  
But you know she'll get by

             LA
'Cause she's living in
                RE
The love of the common people
LA
Smiles from the heart
     MI
Of a family man
LA
Daddy's gonna buy you
  RE
A dream to cling to
LA
Mama's gonna love you
        MI
Just as much as she can
        LA
And she can

       LA
It's a good thing

You don't have a bus fare

It would fall through the hole
 
In your pocket and you'd lose it
       FA#m7
In the snow on the ground
                     RE
You got to walk into town
          MI
To find a job
LA
Tryin' to keep your hands warm

When the hole in your shoe

Let the snow come through
    FA#m7
And chill you to the bone
                        RE
Somehow you'd better go home
           MI
Where it's warm

LA
Living on a dream ain't easy

But the closer the knit

The tighter the fit

And the chills stay away
                      RE
'Cause we take 'em in stride
           MI
For family pride
              LA
You know that faith

Is in your foundation

With a whole lot of love
               
And a warm conversation
    FA#m7
But don't forget to pray
               RE
It's makin' it strong

Love of the Common People è un brano reinterpretato e inciso da Paul Young, la cui versione è contenuta nell'album No Parlez pubblicato nel 1983. Disco d'esordio per l'artista britannico, viene realizzato dopo lo scioglimento dei Q-Tips, la band di cui era frontman e che aveva riscosso ottimi consensi nel UK. La canzone risale al 1967, quando nasceva dalla penna di John Hurley e Ronnie Wilkins; la prima incisione, di quello stesso anno, fu ad opera del quartetto californiano "The Four Preps".
