Capo 2

  G+G        C majorC  G+G
Was 12 years old the last time
     C majorC        | G+G | G+G |
But the laws have all moved on
  G+G          C majorC  G+G
A augmentedA striking family gets nothing
  C majorC         | D MajorD | Dsus4Dsus4 |
And even less when it's gone

    D MajorD            E minorEm
She'll rip the heart from this country
    C majorC          | Dsus4Dsus4 | D MajorD |
There's nothing more to this town
   C majorC            G+G
Than bricks in the middle of nowhere
    C majorC           | G+G | G+G |
And a pit that She's closing down

    C majorC          G+G
You can get six cups from a tea bag
     C majorC       | G+G | G+G |
You can grow on a window sill
    C majorC       | G+G | E minorEm |
We can eat together on Sundays
  C majorC         | Dsus4Dsus4 | D MajorD |
To spread out the leccy bill

    C majorC           G+G
There's nothing much in this bank book
     E minorEm          | C majorC | C majorC |
But I'll stretch it as far as I can
     G+G          C majorC G+G
I'll show Her who's the 'Iron Lady'
   C majorC      | G+G ..
I'm standing by My man

.. | G+G | G+G | G+G |

  G+G         C majorC   G+G
I always ask for the cheap cuts
    C majorC        | G+G | G+G |
Like every house on the street
   G+G        C majorC  G+G
It's half a pound of gristle
  C majorC        | D MajorD | Dsus4Dsus4 |
For half an ounce of meat

     D MajorD             E minorEm
When the kids complain that they're hungry
  G+G            | Dsus4Dsus4 | D MajorD |
I tell 'em we'll eat when We win
    C majorC         G+G
Then I give 'em what's on My plate
   C majorC             | G+G | G+G |
'Cos I'd rather starve than give in

    C majorC          G+G
You can get six cups from a tea bag
     C majorC       | G+G | G+G |
You can grow on a window sill
    C majorC       | G+G | E minorEm |
We can eat together on Sundays
 C majorC          | Dsus4Dsus4 | D MajorD |
To spread out the leccy bill

    C majorC           G+G
There's nothing much in this bank book
     G+G      E minorEm    C majorC
But I'll stretch it as far as I can
     G+G          C majorC G+G
I'll show Her who's the 'Iron Lady'
   C majorC      | G+G ..
I'm standing by My man
