The Consumer chords by Tom Connors


Tom Connors Chords



A          
The consumer they call us, we're the people that buy
                                       B7              E
Well everyone else is out to sell some kind of merchandise
   A                                D 
We run to the boss and tell him we need a bit more gold
                     A          E                    A
Some tax deductions later & we still wind up in the hole



           A
Cho...	Oh yes we are the people runnin' in the race
                                      B7          E
	Buyin' up the bargains in the old marketplace
          A                              D
	Another sale on something, we'll buy it while it's hot
                           A              E              A 
	And save a lot of money spending money we don't got
            D             A              E             A 
	We save a lot of money spending money we don't got


The consumer they call us, we're fussy what we eat
We look at the price of T-bone steak & buy Hamburg meat
And all those fancy packages we take down from the shelf
They're always full of good fresh air 
When they're not full of nothing else

Cho...

The consumer they call us, we always get a fair shake
We buy a fridge that doesn't freeze or a stove that doesn't bake
We can't buy nothin' lastin' lest we get that raise in pay
Then they'd only charge us more for the things
That cost us less today

The consumer they call us, when the man comes thru the door
To give us a deal on the vacuum if we buy a rug for the floor
And how do we pay the finance when the monthly bills arrive
We just send down the bailiff to reposess the car we drive

The consumer they call us, we're always deep in debt
From buyin' drawers in discount stores to fixin' the TV set
We go to the bank for money and sign for another loan
And pray that the Lord doesn't see us stop
In the tavern halfway home

Cho....
