[Verse]
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
We plough and sow, we are so low, that we delve in the dirty clay,
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
‘Til we bless the plain with golden grain and the vale with the fragrant hay.
A E F#m D Bm C#m
Our place we know we are so low, down at the landlord’s feet.
D E F#m C#m D C#m F#m
We’re not too low the bread to grow....... but too low the bread to eat.
[Verse]
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
We’re low, we’re low, we are so low yet from our fingers glide
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
Thee silken flow and the robes that glow round the limbs of the sons of pride
A E F#m D Bm C#m
And what we get and what we give we know and we know our share:
D E F#m C#m D C#m F#m
We're not too low the cloth to weave...... but too low the cloth to wear.
[Verse]
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
Down down we go, we are so low, to the hell of the deep-sunk mine,
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
But we gather the proudest gems that glow when the crown of the despot shine
A E F#m D Bm C#m
Whenever he lacks upon our backs fresh loads he deigns to lay.
D E F#m C#m D C#m F#m
We’re far too low to vote the tax......... but not too low to pay.
[Verse]
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
We’re low, we’re low as to war we go to fight some foreign country
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
That was yesterday our greatest friend, but today’s our enemy.
A E F#m D Bm C#m
“God bless our boys!” the papers scream, “Praise them!” the churchmen cry.
D E F#m C#m D C#m F#m
When the war is won and home we come, ......who cares if we live or die?
[Verse]
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
We’re low, so low, into boats we go to flee war in our home country,
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
And we’ll try to make a better life when we land across the sea.
A E F#m D Bm C#m
But it’s “Send them back!” the press cries out, “Back to where they came!”
D E F#m C#m D C#m F#m
We’re far too low to feed and clothe ........but not too low to blame.
[Verse]
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
We are so low but soon we know that the low folk will arise,
F#m E C#m F#m C#m F#m
And the tyrants in their tow’rs of gold shall hear the people’s cries!
A E F#m D Bm C#m
No more shall they hold us in thrall; their lies we will not heed.
D E F#m C#m D C#m F#m
But every heart shall hear the call,..... and the people will be free!
