Look Down (Les Miserables)

 5    -6   5  -6   5   -6 7   <7  7    -6
Look down and see the beggars at your feet
 5    -6   5   -6   5   <-5 5 4  <-3 5 -2
Look down and show some mercy if you can
 5    -6   5  -6   5   -6   7   <7  7    -6
Look down and see the sweepings of the street
 5    -6    5    -6  5 <-5  5   4 <-3  5 -2
Look down, look down upon  your fellow man
-6  -6 -6  -6  <-5  -6    7  <7
How do you do, my name’s Gavroche
 -6   -6  -6 -6 <-5   -6    7   -6
These are my people, here’s my patch
-6   -6  -6  -6  <-5  -6 7    <7
Not much to look at, nothing posh
 -6 -6   -6   -6   <-5  -6 7    -6
Nothing that you’d call up to scratch
 <7  <7 <7   <7   <-5  <7  <-7 8 <-7 <7
This is my school, my high   society
<-7 <-7 <-7  <-7  8  <-7 <-5 <-5
Here in the slums of St. Michel
<-7 <-7 <-7 <-7   <7 <-7 8  <8 8 <-7
We live on crumbs of humble  piety
 <7   <7 <7   <7   <-7  <7  <5   <5
Tough on the teeth but what the hell
 <7     <5    <5    <7     <5    <5   -7 -5  -5
Think you’re poor, think you’re free, follow me
 -5   7   -5   7    -5  7 -7  <-7 -7  7
Look down and show some mercy if you can
 -5   7     -5   7   -5 -6 -5   -5 5  -5 3
Look down, look down upon your fellow man
 8    8    8     8    <-7  8  8     8   8   <-7
What you think you’re at, hanging round my pitch
8    8     8   8 <-7 <-7   <-7    <-7    7  7  7  7    5
If you’re new around here, girl, you’ve got a lot to learn
 8  8   8   8  <-7   8 8   8  8   <-7
Listen you old bat, crazy bloody witch
  8   8  8   8  <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7   7   7   7   7  5
Least I give my  customers  some pleasure in return
<-9 <-9 <-9  <-9  -9   <-9  <-9  <-9 <-9 -9
 I know what you give, give them all the pox
  <-9  <-9 <-9 <-9 -9 -9   -9   -9   8  8  8  8 <-7
Spread around your poison till they end up in a box
 <-9  <-9 <-9  <-9 -9   <-9 <-9 <-9 <-9 -9
Leave the poor old cow, move it Madeleine
-9  <-9 <-9 <-9 <-9 -9 -9   -9  -9   8    8  8   8   <-7
She used to be  no  better till the clap got to her brain
  8    8   8 8  <-7   8   8   8 8  <-7 
When’s it gonna end, when we gonna live
  8   8      8 8  <-7 <-7 <-7   7    7      7 7   5   
Something’s gotta happen  now, something’s gotta give
 7 7   5
It’ll come (x7)
  8    8   8   8 <-7  8  -9  <-9
Where are the leaders of the land
  8    8   8    8    <-7  8   -9  <-7
Where are the swells who run this show
8 8   8   8   <-7   8     -9 <-9
Only one man, and that’s Lamarque
  8     8   8  8 <-7   8   -9 <-7
Speaks for the people here below
 8   8   8   8   <-7   8   8  8   8   <-7
See our children fed, help us in our shame
 8    8    8  8  <-7 <-7  <-7  <-7 7 7  7 7    5
Something for a crust of bread in holy Jesus’ name
7   7    5    7 7   5
In the lord’s holy name
7   7   5
In his name (x3)
 8  8    8   8  <-7  8 -9  <-9 
Lamarque is ill and fading fast
 <-9  <-9  <-9 <-9  -9  <-9 -10  11
Won’t last the week out, so they say
 -9  -9  -9  -9 -9 <-9 -9  -9
With all the anger in the land
-9   -9  -9 -9  -9   <-9 -9  -9
How long before the judgment day
-9 -9  -9 11  -10 <-9  -9   -9  8   8
Before we cut the fat ones down to size
-9 -9  -9  11 -10 <-9 -9 -10
Before the barricades arise
 -6   -6  -6  -6  <-5 -6 7 <7
Watch out for old Thenardier
-6  -6 -6   -6 <-5  -6  7   -6 
All of his family’s on the make
 -6  -6 -6  -6   <-5   -6   7  <7
Once ran a hash-house down the way
-6  -6 -6 -6   <-5 -6  7  -6
Bit of a swine and no mistake
 <7  <7 <7  <7   <-5  <7 <-7  8 <-7 <7
He’s got a gang, the bleeding layabout
<-7 <-7 <-7  <-7 8   <-7  <-5  <-5
 Even   his daughter does her share
 <-7   <-7 <-7 <-7 <7   <-7   8  <8  8 <-7
That’s   Eponine,  she knows her way about
<7 <7 <7 <7 <-7  <7  <-5 <-5
Only  a kid but hard to scare
<7 <5  <5   <7 <5  <5    7    5   5
Do we care, not a cuss, long live us
 5    -6   5   -6   5   -6 7  <7  7  -6
Look down and show some mercy if you can
 5    -6    5    -6  5 <-5  5   4 <-3  4 -2
Look down, look down upon  your fellow man
