G C x 2


G            D        C
I once had a teacher
    G                D       C
Who said "Silence is golden
G                D           C
Put your name on everything
   G                 D       Em  D
If you don't want it stolen"


    G       D        C       D
But Sir who owns the rolling fields?
    G       C        Em       D
And Sir who owns the standing stones?
    G       C        Em       Am
And Sir who owns the restless sea?
C              D
      It's not you
             G     D     C
And it's not me

G D C

G            D        C
I Once had a teacher
    G                    D         C
Who said "You'll grow up too soon
           G            D            C
You'll get washed up on higher moral ground
        G          D           Em  D
Singing Tory party pop tunes"

G            D        C
I once had a teacher
    G                    D         C
Who said "You'll come to no good
    G            D         C
You want to be a fitter?
           G                       D      Em  D
That's the best one I've heard all year"

    G       D    C       D
But Sir you only knew my name
    G     C      Em         D
You never really knew me at all
    G       C    Em   Am
And Sir you only ever sent
C     D
Me to face
    G    D    C
The wall

G D C

  G                D        C
I used to live off outrage
    G              D         C
But now I've got a mortgage
  G              D           C
I used to be the cock of the school
    G              D
But now I'm just a no bill paying
Em   G      D
Tax evading fool


    G        D          C       D
But Sir I've walked the rolling fields
    G        C     Em D
And felt the magic crying
G              C             Em     Am
  And seen the sorrow in the silver sky
     C                      D       
That tells you that hope is dying


G             D        C      D
  So come and stand on Pendle Hill
    G         C   Em D
And watch the sun rising
G         C                    Em            Am
  To understand that there's a light shining still
C                       D
Whether you're laughing
          G D C
Or you're crying
       G D C      
You're crying
       G D C 
You're crying
           G D C 
You're not crying
       G D C 
You're crying (Come all you shipwrecked angels)
       G D C 
You're crying (Who stand here on a wire)
           G D C 
You're not crying (I see the sun is rising)
           G D C 
You're not crying (To fill our hearts with fire)
