Please note that the strumming pattern is only approximate. The shapes
are the main thing - I've indicated roughly how many times each is
strummed but this isn't 100% accurate.
The same with the words - the changes should match up fairly well with
the words but listen to the record to get the detail.
/ means slide

Some are standing in the centre giving to get something
The rest follows almost exactly the same pattern - the only real
difference is at the end with the lines 'laughing it all away' :
D---0-------0---0-----0--0-------0----0--0--------0---0-0-0-0-0--0---
A---0-------0---0-----0--0-------0----0--0--------0---0-0-0-0-0--0---

A---0-------0---9-----9--9-------2----2--2-----------------------0---
D---------------9-----9--9-------2----2--2---------------------------
Laughing it all away - ay - ay - ay-ay-ay
This repeats three times (I think) then it goes :
D----5-----------3---0---------
A----5-----------3---0---------
F#---5-----------3---0---------
D----5-----------3---0---------
A----5-----------3---0---------
D----5-----------3---0---------
Laughing it all away
