B                              A       B
Smiles for the cameras as the miners return

B                            A           B
They say no one has lost and no one has gained

B                          A            A
But wiser and stronger the people have changed

B                                A        B
And it won't be the same in the village again

B                          A                B
Twelve months of bribery, twelve months of lies

B                       A             B
Cops in the village to truncheon your bride

B                            A            B
Scabs down the back roads to break up the strike

B                                  A          E7
Come out of your houses--there's a war on outside
G5 B
B                          A              B
Attacked in the village, attacked in the courts

B                      A             B
Sacked for refusing to bow to their lords

B                         A          B
Less than a whisper from Commons and Lords

B                                 A           E7
Retreats from the front when they most need support
G5 B
B                    A         B
Woman and woman in opposing extremes

B                           A       B
Between man-made heaven and popular dreams

B                              A           B
Between twisted detachment and learning to breathe

B                         B            A
One locks the prison one sets herself free

B                             A        B
Smiles for the cameras as the miners return

B                            A          B
They say no one has lost and no one has gained

B                          A           B
But wiser and stronger the people have changed

B                           A             E7
And it won't be the same in Fitzwilliam again
G5 B
B                   A           B
Cage and canary are left in the mine

B                        A       B
Canary still sings as machinery dies

B                            A           B
Song breaks the bars which imprison its life

B                             A        B
Flies from the pit shaft and into the skies
