[Verse 1]
Am
There's a sentry in a uniform
Em
To watch the VIPs along the wall
Am
Strategical discussions taking place
Em
Behind the steel plated wall
Bm
The agents issue the statements
G
To the waiting press who circulate the words
Am
Justification propaganda
Em
Western foreign policy across the world
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Am
They read their books and study hard
Em
Cigarettes lit in the claustrophobic gloom
Am
West of the University Road
Em
The world outside is ghost-like in the room
Bm
Frustrated and impatient and
G
Intelligent, sharp and twisted like a child
Am
Death is an aphrodiasiac now
Em
The fuses on the table slowly wired
[Chorus]
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people
Dm Bb C
All of this done
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people

Am G# G G#
Hold me tight, hold me fast
Am G# G G#
Standing here on the wrong side of this bullet-proof glass
Am B
There are no questions left for us to ask
[Turnaround]
Em
[Verse 3]
Am
It's soldiers' night at the discotheque
Em
Pick up a girl and drink to home afar
Am
Spending money like water
Em
On the watered drinks available at the bar
Bm
The ones who never were given much
G
Never asked much of anything in recall
Am
But there's a black bag in the corner
Em
And it doesn't belong to anyone here at all
[Chorus]
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people
Dm Bb C
All of this done
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people
Dm Bb C
All of this done
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people
Dm Bb C
In the name of the people
