[Verse]
         A                                  F#m 
Well I don't know what I’m scared of, but I know that I am scared
        Bm9                                     F#m                          
All the headlines feel like nightmares when I'm lying in my bed
       A                             F#m                         
If the virus doesn't kill us someone might chop off our heads
    Bm9                            F#m                     
But no-one chops down Yew trees on Parliament Square

            A                                       F#m                      
And they’ll lie all day in Westminster, and they'll lie all day in court
            Bm9                       F#m                        
And they'll lie about it later on the evening news reports
              A                             F#m                     
Til there's a hundred thousand bodies lying on the desert floor
            Bm9                                    F#m                    
And they'll point their guns at Russia and they'll start another war

           A                     F#m                       
And In the media offices all the paintbrushes are there
   Bm9                                     F#m                           
To fill the lines with black and white and fill our minds with fear
    A                             F#m                       
And pump us full of fashion and a dull sense of despair
           Bm9                           F#m                         
'Til we're well behave consumers with no questions and no cares


[Chorus]
    A                      F#m                         
But we don’t believe you / we don’t believe you
Bm9                  F#m          
We don't believe you anymore
A                      F#m                        
We don’t believe you / we don't believe you
Bm9                  F#m          
We don't believe you anymore


[Verse]
            A                                 F#m                                           
And they'll pass the buck and cover it up and distort every hand
         Bm9                                  F#m                       
’Til the picture that they're painting is too hard to understand
        A                           F#m                     
And the canvas stretches over every border of every land
          Bm9                                  F#m                     
Cross the trade routes and religions and those bodies in the sand

             A                                  F#m                    
And if we're after Britain first then we should probably be last
       Bm9                            F#m                       
Before UK independence we should give back what isn't ours
         A                                     F#m                
Like the shirts and ties we're wearing made by slaves from afar
          Bm9                                    F#m                           
But those shirts and ties can't hide the emblems tattoo'd on their hearts

              A                                F#m                    
And we should give back all the oceans and the islands and the sky
           Bm9                         F#m                       
Cause they don't belong to any man and no man has the right
        A                              F#m                 
To tell another human being that their access is denied
       Bm9                          F#m                        
To any corner of this planet or any moment of their lives


[Chorus]
    A                      F#m                     
And we don't believe you / we don't believe you
Bm9                  F#m          
We don't believe you anymore
A                      F#m                     
We don't believe you / we don't believe you
Bm9                  F#m          
We don't believe you anymore


[Verse]
        A                               F#m                 
And the music on the adverts plays like prisoners of war
            Bm9                                  F#m               
Who've been forced to sell the weapons that they used to abhor
           A                                   F#m                      
And if you tried to ask questions then they'll back you into corners
            Bm9                        F#m                          
And say you can't ask questions if you haven't got the answers

      A                        F#m                 
While imaginary money grows on electronic trees
    Bm9                             F#m                    
And trickles through the masses and fuels the disease
          A                     F#m                  
Cause the only epidemic with no sign of a vaccine
        Bm9                           F#m                   
Are the global corporations and their foreign policies


[Chorus]
      A                      F#m                      
Well, we don't believe you / we don't believe you
Bm9                  F#m           
We don't believe you anymore
A                      F#m                       
We don't believe you / we don't believe you
Bm9                  F#m                A          
We don't believe you anymore
