Verse:
  Em                 Asus2     F#m7                Em/B
Beneath the old iron bridges, across the Victorian parks
    Em                 Asus2          F#m7        Em/B
And all the frightened people running home before dark
         Em               Asus2            F#m7             Em/B
Past the Saturday morning cinema that lies crumbling to the ground
        Em            Asus2                  F#m7        Em/B
And the p**s stinking shopping center in the new side of town
     Em      Asus2     F#m7    Em/B
I've come to smell the seasons change
              Em          Asus2    F#m7  Em/B
And watch the city as the sun goes down again

             1 + 2 +  3 + 4 +
| Em Asus2 |     F#m7 Baug   |


Chorus:
     Em            Asus2     F#m7 Em/B
Here comes another winter of long shadows
    Em   Asus2 F#m7  Em/B
And hi-i-igh   hopes
     Em            Asus2  F#m7         Em/B
Here comes another winter waitin' for utopia
Em  Asus2       F#m7 Em/B        Asus2 :
    Waitin' for hell   to freeze over

Middle 8:
Asus2        Asus2/B   Em       C
 This is the land where nothing changes
    Asus2       Asus2/B   Em           C
The land of red buses and blue blooded babies
Asus2        Asus2/B      Em             D5
 This is the place, where pensioners are raped
        Asus2            Asus2/B      Em      C
And the hearts are being cut from the welfare state
        Asus2          Asus2/B        Em           D5
Let the poor drink the milk while the rich eat the honey
        Asus2            Asus2/B             Em         C
Let the bums count their blessings while they count the money

Verse:
Em       Asus2          F#m7                  Em/B
 So many people can't express what's on their minds
Em      Asus2            F#m7      Em/B
 Nobody knows them and nobody ever will
            Em        Asus2            F#m7       Em/B
Until their backs are broken and their dreams are stolen
         Em                  Asus2             F#m7      Em/B
And they can't get what they want then they're gonna get angry
              Em             Asus2            F#m7           Em/B
Well it ain't written in the papers, but it's written on the walls
    Em       Asus2        F#m7     Em/B
The way this country is divided to fall
       Em         Asus2         F#m7 Em/B
So the cranes are moving on the   skyline
              Em    Asus2    F#m7 Baug
Trying to ... knock down ... this town

        Em            Asus2          F#m7       Em/B
But the stains on the heartland, can never be removed
          Em             Asus2 F#m7        Em/B
From this country that's sick, sad, and confused

Middle 8:
        Asus2          Asus2/B        Em         C
The ammunition's being passed and the lords been praised
        Asus2           Asus2/B      Em         C
But the wars on the televisions will never be explained
        Asus2           Asus2/B  Em                D5
All the bankers gettin' sweaty beneath their white collars
       Asus2        Asus2/B       Em        C
As the pound in our pocket turns ... into a dollar
