Verse 1:

         F
	Living on free food tickets

Water in the milk from the hole in the roof

                   D#
	Where the rain came through

                     Bb       C/G
	What can you do? hmm hmm

Verse 2:

         F
	Tears from little sister

Crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress

	                         D#
	Without a patch for the party to go

                     Bb            C/G
	Oh but you know,she'll get by

Chorus:

    C/G         F                         Bb        F
	She is living in the love of the common people

	                            Bb    C/G
	Smiles from the heart of a family man

         F                        Bb       F
	Daddy's gonna buy her a dream to cling to

                                                   C/G         F
	Mamma's gonna love her just as much as she can,as she can

Verse 3: (a tone higher)

                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/G            D
	A walkin' to town to find a job

Verse 4:

          G
	Trying to keep your hands warm

But the hole in your shoe let the snow come through

	          F
	And the chills to the bone

	                  C/G             D
	Oh,you better go home where it's warm

Chorus bis:

    D                  G                      C/G       G
	Where you can live in the love of the common people

                                    C/G    D
	Smiles from the heart of a family man

         G                       C/G       G
	Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to

                                                    D          G
	Mamma's gonna love her just as much as she can,as she can

Verse 5: (a tone higher)

         A
	Living on dreams ain't easy

But the closer the knit,the tighter the fit

                  G
	And the chills stay away

                            D            E
	You take them in stride,family pride

Verse 6:

                        A
	You know that faith is your foundation

And with whole lotta love and a warm conversation

              G
	And plenty of prayer

                      D                E
	Making you strong,where you belong

Chorus ter:

    E                  A                       D        A
	Where you can live in the love of the common people

                                        D      E
	Be the pride in the heart of a family man

         A                        D        A
	Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to

                                                    E          A
	Mamma's gonna love her just as much as she can,as she can
