FUNERAL PYRE BY THE JAM


VERSE


 D MajorD
Down in amongst the streets tonight, books will burn,

                A minorAm
people laugh and cry in their turmoil


Turmoil turns rejoiceful

  D MajorD
Shed your fears and lose your guilt,

                   A minorAm
tonight we burn responsibility in the fire

We ll watch the flames grow higher.

CHORUS

G+G
And as I was standing by the edge,


I could see the faces of those who left

      A minorAm
 pissing themselves laughing


and the flames grew higher

G+G
Their mad eyes bulged, their flushed faces said

    C majorC           FF
The weak get crushed and the strong grow stronger.

VERSE


 D MajorD
We feast on flesh and drink on blood,

                   A minorAm
live by fear and despise love in our crisis


What with todays high prices.


 D MajorD
Bring some paper and bring some wood

                      A minorAm
and bring whats left of your love for the fire


And we ll watch the flames grow higher.

CHORUS
