Biografía:
Stanley Allison Rogers (November 29, 1949 – June 2, 1983) was a Canadian folk musician and songwriter.
Rogers was noted for his rich, baritone voice and his traditional-sounding songs which were frequently inspired by Canadian history and the daily lives of working people, especially those from the fishing villages of the Maritime provinces and, later, the farms of the Canadian prairies and Great Lakes. Rogers died in a fire aboard Air Canada Flight 797 on the ground at the Greater Cincinnati Airport at the age of 33.

Capo 5
[Verse]
G D
I used to be a Pharisee,
Em C D
Cynical and wise, telling rich ungodly lies Of humanity
G D
But in the marketplace was seated, a cripple with a lyre.
Am D
I looked at him and said "I've been rich but so unhappy,
C
What sets your soul on fire?"
D G D
And he said "Look upon me, brother, I'm a man with piece of mind,
Em G C
You know I've never been good at nothing
D
But the words I wrought in rhyme,
G D
But I've a good woman to feed me, and friends to share a brew.
Am D
And evenings we sit around and sing together,
C G
and it could be the same for you", if you...
[Chorus]
C D G
Just hold on, to young friends you made of old,
C D G
And cleave to the woman who keeps us whole,
C D
And keep a warm fire for all your friends,
Am Bm
who come in from the cold,
Am C
I love you all as brothers,
Am C
and I don't even know their names,
Am D
For you this must sound different,
D G
but for us it always stays the same...
[Verse]
G
Tonight the smoke is rising, from around the room,
Am C D
And judging from the warmth of smells from the kitchen,
G D
There'll be supper ready soon... And our table's set for twenty,
G D
room for more if they should come,
Am C D
And later on we'll pass around the wine for our pleasure,
Am Bm
and sing until the morning comes
[Chorus]
C D G
Just hold on, to young friends you made of old,
C D G
And cleave to the woman who keeps us whole,
C D
And keep a warm fire for all your friends,
Am Bm
who come in from the cold,
Am C
I love you all as brothers,
Am C
and I don't even know their names,
Am D
For you this must sound different,
D G
but for us it always stays the same...
