Silver Lining. STIFF LITTLE FINGERS
C Em F G F
They tell you not to worry, they say they're terribly sorry
C Em F G
But that's the way it has to be, for the likes of you and me
Am F
Just be good and know your station
G C
Always look on the bright side
Am F
Keep you faith and keep your patience
G G
Your reward is after you've died
(Chorus:)
C Em F G F
So don't be told, don't be consoled
C Em F G
Things are so bad, you can never make do
F G
And there's always someone better off than you
C Em F G F
They tell you that's your future, it's all down to human nature
C Em F G
Simply settle for what you got, that's destiny and that's your lot
Am F G C
All of us cannot come first, yes what you have is second best
Am F
But it might be a good deal worse
G G
Third world peasants get even less
(Chorus)
C Em F G F
So don't be told, don't be consoled
C Em F G
Things are so bad, you can never make do
F G
And there's always someone better off than you
Dm C
Do you care that it's not fair?
Dm C
Is this the way we have to live?
Dm C Dm C
I know I care, and I want an equal share
G F G
Even if it mean I have to give
C Em
The people who are on top
F G F
Say that you should keep your chin up and
C Em F G
They are keen to show you, the unhappy ones below you
Am F G C
But I want to more of that stuff, that's looking at it upside down
Am F G
And the world has got money enough for us to make it go around so
C Em F G F
So don't be told, don't be consoled
C Em F G
Things are so bad, you can never make do
F G
And there's always someone better off than you
