Judy Collins - Salt Of The Earth



[Intro]
G  C   G  C   G  D

[Verse 1]
G     D            G            C  G
Let's drink to the hard working people
      D            G        C
Let's drink to the lowly of birth
G          D            G            C G
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
      D            G           C
Let's drink to the salt of the earth


[Verse 2]
G     D              G           C  G
Say a prayer for the common foot-soldier
        D               G             C
Spare a thought for his back breaking work
G     D              G            C    G
Say a prayer for his wife and his children
    D                      G              C
Who tend the fires and who still till the earth


[Chorus]
Em              Bm
When I see this crowd of faceless
Em                 Bm        Am
A swirling mass of black and grey and white
Bm
They look so real to me
C                        A7  D
But they look so much in pain___


[Verse 3]
G          D            G            C  G
Raise your glass to the hard working people
      D            G         C
Let's drink to the uncounted dead
G     D            G        C   G
Let's think of the wavering millions
         D                G          C
Who need leaders, but get gamblers instead


[Verse 4]
G       D               G            C G
Spare a thought for the stay at-home voter
          D                    G      C
His empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
G      D         G           C   G
In a parading of grey suited grafters
            D         G   C
A choice of cancer or polio


[Chorus]
Em              Bm
When I see this crowd of faceless
Em                 Bm       Am
A swirling mass of grey and black and white
Bm
They look so real to me
C                        A7  D
But they look so much in pain___


[Verse 5]
G     D            G            C  G
Let's drink to the hard working people
      D            G        C
Let's think of the lowly of birth
G       D               G          C  G
Spare a thought for the rag-tagged people
      D            G           C
Let's drink to the salt of the earth


[Verse 6]
G     D            G            C  G
Let's drink to the hard working people
      D            G        C
Let's think of the lowly of birth
G       D               G          C  G
Spare a thought for the rag-tagged people
      D            G           C
Let's drink to the salt of the earth
