Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Where  they sit around
 And get a round in  while the getting's  good
They'll  make the most until  the money's  gone
 They're coming out to celebrate, to sing  and dance and to escape
A  crazy world where everything seems wrong
Drinking  to forget and to remember  all the glory days
The  days we stood apart and we stood strong
Though  the beer befuddles sense
It  can't provide them recompense
They  settle for anotherdrinkingsong
 Where the 'busy man finds recreation'
 the 'idle man finds business'
 The 'melancholy man finds sanctuary'
 The 'stranger may have welcome'
 and still within these self-same walls
 The 'citizen may find some courtesy'
 From 'rose and crown' to 'cock and bull'
 all history is written there
 To folklore, myth and legend we belong
 Come Masons, Plumbers Carpenters,
 Come Cricketers and huntsmen
 All join in anotherdrinkingsong
 Well you can keep your 'long-hours culture'
 your lusting for adventure
 There's life aplenty down 'The tap 'n' Spile'
 Forget youroccupation down 'The Salutation'
 This tragi-comedy will make you smile
 From quaint barstoll philosophy to subtle innuendo
 It's funny how the tribes all get along
 Curse abstinence and temperance, come celebrate insouciance
 And join us in anotherdrinkingsong
