[Intro]
Dm Dm Am Am
Gm Gm F A7 [Verse 1]
Dm We walk every morning
in the silence Am Past the mills on Whetley Lane Gm Where the lights went out
for the very last time F A7 And they never came on again Dm The spokesmen
all shred crocodile tears Am In the glory of the news at ten Gm But the proudest eyes are long since dry F A7 And they're never gonna cry again [Chorus]
Dm I salute your courage and
Am
I toast to your health Gm I wish you all the luck
in the whole wide world F May you never be broken
A7
like they say you will [Verse]
Dm Waking up sudden from a nightmare Am You were walking in the line in pain Gm With a shaven head to
the slaughterhouse F A7 And you never came back again Dm But she took me in her arms
and she held me Am Close tight for a minute or two Gm And then we smiled and laughed,
closed our eyes F A7 Slept again, thinking of you [Chorus]
Dm And the way that it is,
Am
the way that it really is Gm With the money talking
and a scapegoat lover F With the painted face
A7
of a scolding mother Dm I salute your courage and
Am
I toast to your health Gm I wish you all the luck
in the whole wide world F May you never be broken
A7
like they say you will be [Instrumental]
Ab Ab A E
Ab Ab A E [Bridge]
Ab Now lost in time,
A E
cut off from history Ab This is not knowledge,
A B
this is information [Instrumental]

Dm Dm Am Am
Gm Gm F A7 [Chorus] Dm Dear Friend, I salute your
Am
courage and I toast to your health Gm I wish you all the luck
in the whole wide world F May you never be broken
A7
like they say you will Dm But the way that it is,
Am
yeah the way that it really is Gm With the money talking
and a scapegoat lover F With the painted face
A7
of a scolding mother [Outro]
Dm We're walking here
in silence every morning Am Past the mills on Whetley Lane Gm Where the lights went out
for the very last time F A7 And they never came on again Dm And they never came on
again (never came on) Am And they never came on
Gm
again (never came on) a - gain
