Love Of The Common People chords Guitar Chords By John Denver

G
Living on free food tickets
Watering the milk from the hole in the roof
F
Where the rain came through
C D
What can we do?
G
Tears from your baby sister crying
A#
Cause she doesn’t have a dress
F
Without a patch for the party to go
C D
Ah, but you know she’ll get by because she’s

G C D
Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy’s going to buy you a dream to cling to
Mommy’s gonna love you as much as she can,
G F C G F C
and she can
(The key changes here)
G
It’s a good thing you don’t have bus fare
It would fall through the hole in your pocket
F
And you’d lose it in the snow on the ground
C D
Walkin’ to town to find a job
G
Tryin’ to keep your hands warm
But the hole in your shoe lets the snow come through
F
And it chills to the bone
C D
Boy you better go home where it’s warm
G C D
And you can live in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy’s goin’ to buy you a dream to cling to
Mummy’s goin’ to love you as much as she can
G F C G F C D# G D A G D A
And she can

A
Livin’ on dreams ain’t easy
But the closer the knit, the tighter the fit
G
And the chills stay away
D D#
You take them in stride, family pride
A
You know faith is your foundation
G
With a whole lot of love and a warm conversation
And many a prayer
D D#
Making you strong, where you belong

A D D#
Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy’s goin’ to buy you a dream to cling to
Mummy’s goin’ to love you just as much as she can
D#
Yeah
A D D#
Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy’s goin’ to buy you a dream to cling to
A G D A G D A G D A
Mummy’s goin’ to love you just as much as she can
Yeah
