[VERSE 1]
G# G# D# G#
St. Val-en-tine's day comes a-round once a year,
G# G# C# D# D#
our thought turn to love as the day it draws near,
G# G# C# G#
When sweet-hearts and dar-lings, hus-bands and wives,
G# G# D# G# G#
Pledge love and de-vo-tion for.the rest of their lives
C# C# G# G#
As day turns to even-ing soon night-time does fall,
G# G# C# D# D#
Young peo-ple get ready for the Val-en-tine's Ball,
G# G# C# G#
As the night rings with laugh-ter some peo-ple still mourn
G# G# D# G# G#
The for-ty eight chil-dren who ne-ver came home
[CHORUS]
C# C# G# G#
Have we for-got-ten the suff-ering and pain
G# G# C# D# D#
the sur-viv-ors and vic-tims of.the fire in Ar-tane,
G# G# C# G#
the moth-ers and fath-ers for-ever to mourn
G# G# D# G# G#
the for-ty eight chil-dren who ne-ver came home.
[VERSE 2]
G# G# D# G#
it's down to the Star-dust they all made their way
G# G# C# D# D#
The boun-cers looked on as they lined up to pay
G# G# C# G#
The rec-ords are spin-ning there's dan-cing as well
G# G# D# G# G#
Just how the fire start-ed sure no one can tell.
C# C# G# G#
In.a mat-ter of sec-onds con-fus-ion did reign
G# G# C# D# D#
The room was in dark-ness fire ex-its were chained
G# G# C# G#
The fire-fight-ers wept for they could not hide,
G# G# D# G# G#
Their sorr-ow and an-ger for those left in-side.
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 3]
G# G# D# G#
All a-round the city the bad news it spread
G# G# C# D# D#
There's a fire in the Star-dust there's for-ty eight dead
G# G# C# G#
Hun-dreds of chil-dren are in-jured and maimed
G# G# D# G# G#
And all just be-cause the fire ex-its were chained.
C# C# G# G#
Our lead-ers were shocked, grim state-ments were made
G# G# C# D# D#
They shed tears by the graves as.the bo-dies were laid
G# G# C# G#
The vic-tims have wait-ed in vain for four years
G# G# D# G# G#
It seems like our lead-ers shed croc-o-dile tears.
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 4]
G# G# D# G#
Half a mill-ion was spent on so-lic-itor's fees,
G# G# C# D# D#
F for-tune to.the ow-ner and his fa-mil-y
G# G# C# G#
It's hard to be-lieve not one pen-ny came
G# G# D# G# G#
To the work-ing class peo-ple who suff-ered the pain.
C# C# G# G#
Days turn to weeks and weeks turn to years
G# G# C# D# D#
Our laws fav-our the rich or so it app-ears
G# G# C# G#
F wo-man still waits for her kids to come home
G# G# D# G# G#
In-jus-tice breeds an-ger and that's what's been done.
