[INTRO]
[G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [D]

[VERSE 1]
[G]Let's [D]drink to the [G]hard working [C]peo[G]ple
Let's [D]drink to the [G]lowly of [C]birth

Let's [D]drink to the [G]salt of the [C]earth

[VERSE 2]
[G]Say a [D]prayer for the [G]common foot-[C]sol[G]dier
Spare a [D]thought for his [G]back breaking [C]work
[G]Say a [D]prayer for his [G]wife and his [C]child[G]ren
Who [D]tend the fires and who [G]still till the [C]earth

[CHORUS]
[Em]When I see this [Bm]crowd of faceless
[Em]A swirling mass of [Bm]black and [Am]grey and white
[Bm]They look so real to me
[C]But they look so much in [A7]pain[D]___

[VERSE 3]
[G]Raise your [D]glass to the [G]hard working [C]peo[G]ple
Let's [D]drink to the [G]uncounted [C]dead
[G]Let's [D]think of the [G]wavering [C]mill[G]ions
Who need [D]leaders, but get [G]gamblers in[C]stead

[VERSE 4]
[G]Spare a [D]thought for the [G]stay at-home [C]vo[G]ter
His empty [D]eyes gaze at strange [G]beauty [C]shows
[G]In a pa[D]rading of [G]grey suited [C]graf[G]ters
A choice of [D]cancer or [G]poli[C]o

[CHORUS]
[Em]When I see this [Bm]crowd of faceless
[Em]A swirling mass of [Bm]grey and [Am]black and white
[Bm]They look so real to me
[C]But they look so much in [A7]pain[D]___
