Brave Awakening - Terry Reid
Chords By William Seth Tipton

F
Mother I fear for the laddies
Bb                                Bb/A         Gm
There ain't much more coal to go down to 
Bb                                Bb/A
There ain't much more soul 
         Gm
To get round to 
F            Bb   F
Not anymore 

Mother I hear for the laddies 
Ain't much more soul to get round to 
Lessening of companies that are finding 
Things to bind to it anymore 
 
Bb                                    C7
I'd hate to just realise why 
That company's getting so shy 
The bairns don't have get-togethers 
                        F
Round here not anymore 

Mother I hear for the laddies 
Talking 'bout going on down to 
The town where the money's just bound to 
Surely just ease the door 

F ............                             
It's happening all over the city 
Bb........................
There ain't much more doubt 
To get down to 
Lessening of reasons 
That can send you 
Back down for more 

They're telling their sisters of why 
Feelings that pass them close by 
All that they seek 
Is what they're wanting to keep 
And it's glistening right there in their eyes 

So mother I fear for the laddies 
Father says no one goes down to 
The face of some mine no boy of mine's 
Gonna be bound to, anymore 

The future, a brave new awakening 
Have to no more go back down to 
The bowels of this earth that will take you 
Away from home and more
