        Living on free food tickets

        Water in the milk from the hole in the roof
                   D#
        Where the rain came through
                     Bb       C/G
        What can you do? hmm hmm


Verse 2:
         F
        Tears from little sister

        Crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress
                                 D#
        Without a patch for the party to go
                     Bb            C/G
        Oh but you know,she'll get by


Chorus:
    C/G         F                         Bb        F
        She is living in the love of the common people
                                    Bb    C/G
        Smiles from the heart of a family man
         F                        Bb       F
        Daddy's gonna buy her a dream to cling to
                                                   C/G         F
        Mamma's gonna love her just as much as she can,as she can


Verse 3: (a tone higher)
                G
        It's a good thing you don't have bus fare

        It would fall through the hole in your pocket
                                   F
        And you'd lose it in the snow on the ground
                      C/G            D
        A walkin' to town to find a job


Verse 4:
          G
        Trying to keep your hands warm

        But the hole in your shoe let the snow come through
                  F
        And the chills to the bone
                          C/G             D
        Oh,you better go home where it's warm

        Where you can live in the love of the common people
                                    C/G    D
        Smiles from the heart of a family man
         G                       C/G       G
        Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
                                                    D          G

Verse 5: (a tone higher)
         A
        Living on dreams ain't easy

        But the closer the knit,the tighter the fit
                  G
        And the chills stay away
                            D            E
        You take them in stride,family pride


Verse 6:
                        A
        You know that faith is your foundation

        And with whole lotta love and a warm conversation
              G
        And plenty of prayer
                      D                E
        Making you strong,where you belong
