For five generations my family have farmed,
C# Cm A#m D#
by horse and by tractor, by hoe and by hand,
G# A#m Cm D#
but that won't stave off the bank's latest demand.
A#m D# G#
Singing oh the hard times of old England
A#m D# G#
In old England very hard times
G# Cm Fm D#
Time was, I could sell what I grew at the shop,
C# Cm A#m D#
Then Tesco's turned up, all of that had to stop.
G# A#m Cm D#
Now I can't make a living out of my crop.
A#m D# G#
Singing oh the hard times of old England
A#m D# G#
In old England very hard times
G# Cm Fm D#
More and more of our village gets sold every day,
C# Cm A#m D#
To folks from the city who are happy to pay,
G# A#m Cm D#
For their holiday cottage to stand empty all day.
A#m D# G#
Singing oh the hard times of old England
A#m D# G#
In old England very hard times
G# Cm Fm D#
The Countryside Alliance expects, I suppose,
C# Cm A#m D#
My support when they're marching to bloody Blair's nose,
G# A#m Cm D#
But they said not a word when our post office closed.
A#m D# G#
Singing oh the hard times of old England
A#m D# G#
In old England very hard times
G# Cm Fm D#
The hedgerows my grandfather tended have gone,
C# Cm A#m D#
And with them the lapwing and the corncrake's sad song.
G# A#m Cm D#
I fear I'll be carried off before long.
A#m D# G#
Singing oh the hard times of old England
A#m D# G#
In old England very hard times
G# Cm Fm D#
And now to conclude and to finish my song;
C# Cm A#m D#
Let's hope that these hard times they will not last long,
G# A#m Cm D#
And I may soon have occasion for to alter my song
A#m D# G#
Singing oh the good times of old England
A#m D# G#
In old England very good times
