Verse 1:

F#m                                   A
      Last night I had a little altercation
             D
They wobbled menacingly
             B                                 A
Beneath the yellow street light it became a situation

           F#m
Well, they wanted my brand new phone
                             A
With all the pictures of the kids and the wife
   D                    B                        A
A struggle ensued and then fat children took my life


Chorus:

F#m
Fat children took my life
F#m
Fat children took my life
F#m
Fat children took my life

F#m  A  D  B  A  F#m


Verse 2:

F#m                                           A
      Well, some passers-by took me to the station
      D
The police force was elsewhere
        B                                             A
Putting bullets in some guy's head for no particular reason
      F#m                                                A
So I died in the back of the cab, but I'll be back to haunt them
      D
This thing does not end here
     B                          A
My spirit walks the streets of Tottenham

Singin'


Chorus:

F#m
Fat children took my life
F#m
Fat children took my life
F#m
Fat children took my life

F#m  A  D  B  A  F#m


Bridge:
 E                       F#m
Ah, the parents are the problem
                  C#                                  D
Givin' birth to maggots without the sense to become flies
                                      C#             F         F#m
So pander to your pampered little princess of such enormous size

F#  A  D  B  A  F#  x3
