Intro: C Em F G
C Mary loves the grouse, hides the Em bottles round the house,
She watches F chatshows and the soaps, broken- G hearted but she copes,
C Michael's out of work, feels he's Em sinking in the murk,
He's uns F haven and a mess, finds it G hard some days to dress
C Stevie smashes the delf, cos he Em can't express himself,
He's co F nsumed by rage, like his G father at his age,
C Rits'a little child, have a Em lovely little smile,
This means F nothing to her father, because he's G never even seen her
Chorus:
We F sing, sing all our cares G away
F We'll live, to fight another G da G/E y
Verse:
C Joey's off the gear, he's been Em clean for half a year,
He gets F bored out of his mind, but he's G tryin to toe the line
C Maggie's in a chair, 'twas Em joyriding put her there,
She puts the F kettle on the boil, and shes G always got a smile
Chorus:
We F sing, sing all our cares G away
We'll l F ive, to fight another G day
We F sing, sing all our cares G away,
We'll l F ive, to love another Em day,
We grow C strong, from it G all,
We grow F strong, or we f G all,
We grow C strong, from it Em all,
We grow F strong, or we G fall,
We grow C strong.
