What Reason Have They to Dance?
It's technically an Orphans tune but I figure more people will see it here.
Let me know if I messed some stuff up.
Rest in Power Erik
[Verse 1]
G
Today in a village of famine,
D
A feast was had by all
So stop all the presses
C D
and listen for the riots and brawls
G
But no rifles were aimed at comrades,
C
Only at our fascist lords
D
There were ghosts of
Winstanley’s farmers
C
When they were wielding
D
Ploughs not swords
[Chorus]
G C
What reason have they to dance
And to sing?
D
Their pockets are all empty,
C D
They've no stewards, queens or kings
G
No bosses, laws or order
C
Marching armies must we bring
D
To give them all a reason
C
Now to dance
D
And to sing!
[Verse 2]
G
Hush scholar of history,
D
Do not write a word
D
We'll make repetition out of precedents,
C D
See that this dream goes deferred
G
Tell of insatiable greed within us
C
And how the rebellion didn't work
D
So in a hundred years it's forgotten
C D
Shift the tale and shift the worth
[Chorus]
G C
What reason have they to dance and to sing?
D
Their pockets are all empty,
C D
They've no stewards, queens or kings
G
No bosses, laws or order
C
Marching armies must we bring
D
To give them all a reason
C D
Now to dance and to sing!
[Instrumental]
D C B A G
???
[Verse 3]
G
Where the women took up arms
C
To kill the fascists to protect life
D
Where the food was freed at last
C D
For all the people's fork and knife
[Chorus]
G C
'Tis the reason they have to dance and to sing
D
Their pockets are all empty,
C D
They've no stewards, queens or kings
G
No bosses, laws or order,
C D
Everyone has everything
D
Each day gives them a reason now
C D C B A G
To dance and to sing!
