POLICE OPPRESSION by ANGELIC UPSTARTS

Great tune. B-side to their first single. Unsure of the chords in the solo.

INTRO:  C majorC  D MajorD  E MajorE  E MajorE  (x lots)

C majorC  D MajorD  E MajorE
      I just can't take much more of this oppression
      I'm going out of my head and it's war not oppression
      I'm gonna go out for a walk
      I'm gonna sit down and have talk
CHORUS:
G+G
they're asking me how and they're asking me why
A augmentedA
have you ever seen grown men cry
G+G
police police police oppression,
A augmentedA
police police police oppression

VERSE:
really find it hard even walking round the streets
hey I know you son I'll knock you off your feet

CHORUS:
same number a million times before,
shut your mouth son or I'll knock you on the floor
police police police oppression, police police police oppression

BREAK: guitar solo (chords to be worked out)

VERSE:
I just can't take much more of this oppression
I'm going out of my head and it's war not oppression
I'm gonna go out for a war I'm gonna sit down and have talk

REPEAT CHORUS 1:

REPEAT INTRO:

VERSE:
lying in the cells is really no fun
cut the bricks learn some tricks
ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies
ain't doing nothing really a crime

CHORUS:
police police police oppression
police police police oppression
police police police police police

MAIN RIFF TO END
