Verse:
 E minorEm         Asus2Asus2   F#m7F#m7        Em/B
Beneath the old iron bridges, across the Victorian parks
  E minorEm         Asus2Asus2     F#m7F#m7    Em/B
And all the frightened people running home before dark
     E minorEm        Asus2Asus2      F#m7F#m7       Em/B
Past the Saturday morning cinema that lies crumbling to the ground
    E minorEm      Asus2Asus2         F#m7F#m7    Em/B
And the p**s stinking shopping center in the new side of town
   E minorEm   Asus2Asus2   F#m7F#m7  Em/B
I've come to smell the seasons change
       E minorEm     Asus2Asus2  F#m7F#m7 Em/B
And watch the city as the sun goes down again

       1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
| E minorEm Asus2Asus2 |   F#m7F#m7 BaugBaug  |

Chorus:
   E minorEm      Asus2Asus2   F#m7F#m7 Em/B
Here comes another winter of long shadows
  E minorEm  Asus2Asus2 F#m7F#m7 Em/B
And hi-i-igh  hopes
   E minorEm      Asus2Asus2 F#m7F#m7     Em/B
Here comes another winter waitin' for utopia
E minorEm Asus2Asus2    F#m7F#m7 Em/B    Asus2Asus2 :
  Waitin' for hell  to freeze over

Middle 8:
Asus2Asus2    Asus2/B  E minorEm    C majorC
 This is the land where nothing changes
  Asus2Asus2    Asus2/B  E minorEm      C majorC
The land of red buses and blue blooded babies
Asus2Asus2    Asus2/B   E minorEm       D5D5
 This is the place, where pensioners are raped
    Asus2Asus2      Asus2/B   E minorEm   C majorC
And the hearts are being cut from the welfare state
    Asus2Asus2     Asus2/B    E minorEm      D5D5
Let the poor drink the milk while the rich eat the honey
    Asus2Asus2      Asus2/B       E minorEm     C majorC
Let the bums count their blessings while they count the money

Verse:
E minorEm    Asus2Asus2     F#m7F#m7         Em/B
 So many people can't express what's on their minds
E minorEm   Asus2Asus2      F#m7F#m7   Em/B
 Nobody knows them and nobody ever will
      E minorEm    Asus2Asus2      F#m7F#m7    Em/B
Until their backs are broken and their dreams are stolen
     E minorEm         Asus2Asus2       F#m7F#m7   Em/B
And they can't get what they want then they're gonna get angry
       E minorEm       Asus2Asus2      F#m7F#m7      Em/B
Well it ain't written in the papers, but it's written on the walls
  E minorEm    Asus2Asus2    F#m7F#m7   Em/B
The way this country is divided to fall
    E minorEm     Asus2Asus2     F#m7F#m7 Em/B
So the cranes are moving on the  skyline
       E minorEm  Asus2Asus2  F#m7F#m7 BaugBaug
Trying to ... knock down ... this town

    E minorEm      Asus2Asus2     F#m7F#m7    Em/B
But the stains on the heartland, can never be removed
     E minorEm       Asus2Asus2 F#m7F#m7    Em/B
From this country that's sick, sad, and confused

Middle 8:
    Asus2Asus2     Asus2/B    E minorEm     C majorC
The ammunition's being passed and the lords been praised
    Asus2Asus2      Asus2/B   E minorEm     C majorC
But the wars on the televisions will never be explained
    Asus2Asus2      Asus2/B E minorEm        D5D5
All the bankers gettin' sweaty beneath their white collars
    Asus2Asus2    Asus2/B    E minorEm    C majorC
As the pound in our pocket turns ... into a dollar
