Ralph McTell — Masks And Gowns

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

[Intro]
C G C

[Verse 1]
      C
When we're at war a soldier's gun
    F
Protects him from what might be done
       C                                G
By an unseen enemy waiting to take him down
     C
But look at the workers in the N.H.S.
 F
Marigold hands and Bin bag vests
    C       G              C
No PPE and not enough masks and gowns

[Verse 2]
  C
Promising there's enough supplies
 F
Denies what we see with our own eyes
C                  D7                   G
Truth would be a breath of sweet fresh air
C
Hold up your hands, admit mistakes
F
Denial adds to each heartbreak
C                              G              C
Loved ones fighting for their very lives out there

[Chorus]
F
Bang on the drum do what you can
C
Stand at your door and clap your hands
         D7                                    G
It's the way to tell 'em we think you are the best
C
Stick to the rules, support the cause
F                    D7
Keep your distance, stay indoors
     C                 G                   C
And thank your lucky stars you've got the NHS

C G C

[Verse 3]
          C
There's statues of heroes in every town
 F
Time we had one in a mask and gown
  C                              G
Stood with Nelson in Trafalgar Square
C
Each carer, doctor, nurse who's died
 F
Carve their names with grateful pride
 C                 G                C
Their sacrifice almost too much to bear

[Verse 4]
C
What a carer earns fills me with rage
F
Risking their lives for the minimum wage
C                                   G
Holding the frontline with no barricades
C
All for the want of a gown or mask
F
Surely it's not too much to ask
      C            G                 C
The bravest carry on though still afraid

[Chorus]
F
Bang your drum, do what you can
C
Stand at your door and clap your hands
                        D7                G
It's the way to say we think you are the best
C
Stick to the rules, support the cause
F                    D7
Keep your distance, stay indoors
     C                 G                   C
And thank your lucky stars we've got the NHS
C
Stick with the rules, support the cause
F                    D7
Keep your distance, stay indoors
     C                 G                   C
And thank your lucky stars you've got the NHS

Ralph does not always play the F to D7 in the verses, just stays on F.
