New Model Army - Courage Chords

[Intro]
Dm Dm Am Am Gm Gm F A7 (1x)
 
 
[Verse 1]
   Dm
We walk every morning in the silence
         Am
Past the mills on Whetley Lane
          Gm
Where the lights went out for the very last time
         F               A7
And they never came on again
    Dm
The spokesmen all shred crocodile tears
       Am
In the glory of the news at ten
        Gm
But the proudest eyes are long since dry
            F                 A7
And they're never gonna cry again
 
 
[Chorus]
     Dm                     Am
I salute your courage and I toast to your health
      Gm
I wish you all the luck in the whole wide world
        F                      A7
May you never be broken like they say you will
 
 
[Verse 2]
Dm
Waking up sudden from a nightmare
         Am
You were walking in the line in pain
       Gm
With a shaven head to the slaughterhouse
        F                 A7
And you never came back again
        Dm
But she took me in her arms and she held me
      Am
Close tight for a minute or two
       Gm
And then we smiled and laughed, closed our eyes
F            A7
Slept again, thinking of you
 
 
[Chorus]
        Dm                         Am
And the way that it is, the way that it really is
         Gm
With the money talking and a scapegoat lover
         F                 A7
With the painted face of a scolding mother
    Dm                      Am
I salute your courage and I toast to your health
      Gm
I wish you all the luck in the whole wide world
        F                      A7
May you never be broken like they say you will be

[Bridge]
     Ab               A                E
Now lost in time, cut off from history
     Ab                        A            B
This is not knowledge, this is information

[Chorus]
                 Dm                      Am
Dear Friend, I salute your courage and I toast to your health
      Gm
I wish you all the luck in the whole wide world
        F                         A7
May you never be broken like they say you will
        Dm                              Am
But the way that it is, yeah the way that it really is
         Gm
With the money talking and a scapegoat lover
         F                 A7
With the painted face of a scolding mother
 
 
[Outro]
   Dm
We're walking here in silence every morning
         Am
Past the mills on Whetley Lane
          Gm
Where the lights went out for the very last time
         F                A7
And they never came on again
         Dm
And they never came on again (never came on)
         Am                                       Gm
And they never came on again (never came on) a - gain
