Verse 1:

    A augmentedA
It's a long walk to the gallows

It's a small step to swing free

The crying in the tower

For my conspirators and me

A augmentedA
Gunpowder and modem

   D MajorD
And a dream of liberty

         E MajorE
And then they'll tell you

         D MajorD
Don't try this at home

Oh yes, they'll tell you

Don't try this at home

    A augmentedA
If you walk on the beach with King Canute

You'll be walking back alone

 A augmentedA
Tonight he'll dine on oysters

     D MajorD
While we fall like green acorns

     A augmentedA
We'll be putting down our roots

       D MajorD
Right in the centre of the storm

        E MajorE
Oh, but they'll tell you

         D MajorD
Don't try this at home

        E MajorE
Oh yes, they'll tell you

Don't try this at home

Verse 3:

A augmentedA
Somewhere across the water

    D MajorD
They're storming palace gates

A augmentedA
Scared of the moth-flame metaphor

  D MajorD
We fall asleep and wait

A augmentedA
Singing for a future

    D MajorD
But the chorus comes too late

        E MajorE
Because they'll tell you

         D MajorD
Don't try this at home

        E MajorE
Oh yes, they'll tell you

         D MajorD
Don't try this at home
