Silver Lining. STIFF LITTLE FINGERS
 
[Verse]
C	      Em	     F	             G	            F	
They tell you not to worry, they say they're terribly sorry
C			Em		F		G		
But that's the way it has to be, for the likes of you and me
Am	         F
Just be good and know your station
G			     C
Always look on the bright side
Am	           F
Keep you faith and keep your patience
G			G
Your reward is after you've died
 
[Chorus]
C	     Em		F	G		F
So don't be told, don't be consoled
C	      Em		F		G			
Things are so bad, you can never make do
F				           G
And there's always someone better off than you
 
C		Em		F		G			F
They tell you that's your future, it's all down to human nature
C		Em		F			G			
Simply settle for what you got, that's destiny and that's your lot
Am			F		G		     C
All of us cannot come first, yes what you have is second best
Am			F
But it might be a good deal worse
G				G
Third world peasants get even less
 
[Chorus]
C	    Em		F	  G	F
So don't be told, don't be consoled
C		Em		F		G			
Things are so bad, you can never make do
F					   G
And there's always someone better off than you
 
Dm		           C
Do you care that it's not fair?
Dm			  C
Is this the way we have to live?
Dm	    C          Dm	    C
I know I care, and I want an equal share
G		          F		G
Even if it mean I have to give
 
 C		   Em
The people who are on top
F	           G				F
Say that you should keep your chin up and
C		Em		F			G
They are keen to show you, the unhappy ones below you
Am 		F      		G			    C
But I want to more of that stuff, that's looking at it upside down
Am 			F		G			
And the world has got money enough for us to make it go around so
 
C	    Em	    F	     G		
So don't be told, don't be consoled
C        Em     F        G
Don't be ruled, don't be fooled
        F                                G			
Because things are so bad, you can never make do
F				          G
And there's always someone better off than you
