Tom: C
CAPO 3
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Intro: C, Fmaj7, C, Am, G, C
C Fmaj7 C
The walls are graffitied, the rubbish is strung,
Am G Fmaj7
the carneval has come to town.
C Fmaj7 C
The window's still borded, the police are scared.
Am G C
Last week this whole city burned down.
C Fmaj7 C
There is no situation that they can't make worse.
Am G Fmaj7
There's thirty-five-thousand arounds;
C Fmaj7 C
and they'll gravely chase after the fears or foes,
Am G C
provided their easily founds.
Fmaj7 C
So, imagine the future, imagine a boot,
Am G Fmaj7
imagine a human face.
C Fmaj7 C
And imagine a country where everyone's watched,
Fmaj7 G C
and then firmly put back in their place.
C Fmaj7 C
From Ladbroke Grove Station to Nottinghill Gates,
Am G Fmaj7
the market is dead, on its feet.
C Fmaj7 C
Past Orwells old house with dead looks in their eyes.
Am G C
And their clipboards, they march on the beat.
C Fmaj7 C
You could go after them with guitars in your hands,
Am G Fmaj7
but they'll sure enough quickly deploy
C Fmaj7 C
drones that steal from you, choke you and shatter your bones.
Am G C
Those (...) always destroy.
Fmaj7 C
So, imagine the future, imagine a boot,
Am G Fmaj7
imagine a human face.
C Fmaj7 C
And imagine a country where everyone's watched,
Fmaj7 G C
and then firmly put back in their place.
C, F, C, Am, G, F, C, F, C, Am, G, C
C Fmaj7 C
So we gathered in silence in the back of the bar
Am G Fmaj7
on the street where the bands used to play.
C Fmaj7 C
Nursing our drinks and cursing our luck,
Am G C
surely they don't deserve the last sake.
C Fmaj7 C
Raise your instruments high, and your voice to the sky,
Am G Fmaj7
'cause it's all that we have for the fight.
C Fmaj7 C
But when they turn this all into one shopping mall,
Am G C
they'll finally sleep well at night.
Fmaj7 C
So, imagine the future, imagine a booze,
Am G Fmaj7
imagine a human face.
C Fmaj7 C
And imagine a country where everyone's watched,
Fmaj7 G C
and then firmly put back in their place.
