As Tears Go By by Marianne Faithfull



[C] When I was a little bitty babyMy mama would [F] rock me in the [C] cradleIn them old cotton fields back [G] home;It was [C] down in LouisianaJust about a [F] mile from Texar[C]kanaIn them old [G] cotton fields back [C] home.

Oh when them [F] cotton balls get a-rottenYou can’t [C] pick very much cottonIn them old cotton fields back [G] home;It was [C] down in LouisianaJust about a [F] mile from Texar[C]kanaIn them old [G] cotton fields back [C] home.

Now it [C] may seem very funnyBut you don’t [F] make very much [C] moneyIn them old cotton fields back [G] home;Yes it [C] may seem very funnyBut you don’t [F] make very much [C] moneyIn them old cotton fields back [G] home;

‘Cause when them [F] cotton balls get a-rottenYou can’t [C] pick very much cottonIn them old cotton fields back [G] home;It was [C] down in LouisianaJust about a [F] mile from Texar[C]kanaIn them old [G] cotton fields back [C] home.

Ordinary Man Written and performed by WOB



[D] Tock goes the [A] arm of the clock,[D] I’m keeping an [A] eye on the door,[D] It feels like I’ve [A] already been here all day[D] And I don’t get a [A] break until [D] four;[D] I’m in here each [A] morning by ten a.m.,[D] Log in, head set and [A] go;[D] Clicking a mouse and re[A]citing out loud[D] Wears you out [A] more than you’d [D] know.

Chorus:My [G] eyelids beginning to [A] fall,I [G] don’t hit my targets at [A] all,[D] Oh, how I’ll [A] shout when [G] I can get [A] out,[G] Now I [A] struggle to make the next [D] call.

[D] People and places [A] pass by your face,[D] Lined up, laid out, [A] black and white.[D] Whether happy or friendly, [A] hostile or confused,[D] You’re professional, [A] calm and po[D]lite;[D] You talk for a moment, [A] then they are gone,[D] The conveyor belt [A] rolls them along.[D] It’s nice to think s[A] ometimes you’re doing some good,[D] But you’re not paid to [A] think, so move [D] on.

Chorus:

[D] We can chat, but [A] not as much as you’d like[D] Perhaps they don’t [A] like what we’d say.[D] A joke and a smile is as [A] good as you get,[D] If you keep out the [A] shift leader’s [D] way;[D] There’s a pub down at the [A] end of the road,[D] We go there each [A] day on our break.[D] It’s great to kick [A] back for a moment or two,[D] But sometimes it’s an [A] awful mis[D]take.

Chorus:

[D] Some other people go [A] home at five[D] And have a whole [A] evening ahead.[D] I’d give up the lie-[A]in to get back a life,[D] When I finish I’m [A] ready for [D] bed;[D] The new bloke got s[A] acked last night,[D] No notice, no [A] apologies,[D] He seemed a good [A] lad, but his numbers were bad;[D] Next time I [A] hope it’s not [D] me.

Chorus: x2
