Masks And Gowns

C G C

[Verse 1]
      C
When we're at war a soldier's gun
    F
Protects him from what might be done
       C                           
By an unseen enemy waiting to take 
     G
him down
     C
But look at the workers in the 
N.H.S.
 F
Marigold hands and Bin bag vests
    C       G              C
No PPE and not enough masks and 
gowns

[Verse 2]
  C
Promising there's enough supplies
 F
Denies what we see with our own eyes
C                  D7            
Truth would be a breath of sweet 
       G
fresh air
C
Hold up your hands, admit mistakes
F
Denial adds to each heartbreak
C                              G 
Loved ones fighting for their 
             C
very lives out there

[Chorus]
F
Bang on the drum do what you can

C
Stand at your door and clap your 
hands
         D7                      
It's the way to tell 'em we think 
              G
you are the best
C
Stick to the rules, support the 
cause
F                    D7
Keep your distance, stay indoors
     C                 G          
And thank your lucky stars you've 
         C
got the NHS

[Verse 3]
          C
There's statues of heroes in every 
town
 F
Time we had one in a mask and gown
  C                           
Stood with Nelson in Trafalgar 
   G
Square
C
Each carer, doctor, nurse who's died
 F
Carve their names with grateful 
pride
 C                 G              
Their sacrifice almost too much to
  C
 bear

[Verse 4]
C
What a carer earns fills me with 
rage
F
Risking their lives for the minimum 
wage
C                           
Holding the frontline with no 
        G
barricades
C
All for the want of a gown or mask
F
Surely it's not too much to ask
      C            G              
The bravest carry on though still 
   C
afraid

[Chorus]
F
Bang your drum, do what you can
C
Stand at your door and clap your 
hands
                        D7         
It's the way to say we think you 
       G
are the best
C
Stick to the rules, support the 
cause
F                    D7
Keep your distance, stay indoors
     C                 G          
And thank your lucky stars we've 
         C
got the NHS
C
Stick with the rules, support the 
cause
F                    D7
Keep your distance, stay indoors
     C                 G          
And thank your lucky stars you've 
         C
got the NHS
