Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse
C     Gm                    Dm                    E
Every sweet little lie ever whispered to you now rings true

C                    Gm                Dm          E
No need to wake the sleeping dogs when they'll just turn on you
 C                Gm            Dm                  E
I'll make my way instead to the foot of your ivory tower
                                                                  C
Gm          Dm                            E
But no love do I find there amongst the leaves and the dying flowers

Chorus
E
What became of the lover in you
E         D    C          B
Beat the swine black and blue
E       D  C       B
You and I, me and you
E      D           C       B
What became of the lover in you
E      D           C        B
What became of the lover in you

Verse
The Thames and the Mersey, the Tyne and the Wear and the Clyde
They spew slums like gravy on the banks of the poisonous tide
They washed up a pale thin girl, alone in her ivory tower
Scratching her skin with the thorns that grow on the stems of the wild flowers

Chorus
What became of the lover in you
Beat the swine black and blue
You and I, me and you
What became of the lover in you

What became of the working class
Nike, Reebok, Adidas,
Scratch cards, pimples, ecstasy
Hooray for the 21st Century (5x)

Bridge
Bm              F#               G                   C
Living in a looking glass as the beauty of life goes by
F              Bb         G                C
You're going to be so old, you're going to grow so old
E
Your skin so cold
    E          D    C   B
Hooray for the 21st Century(x8)
