CAPO 3
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
Intro: C, Fmaj7, C, Am, G, CCFmaj7C
The walls are graffitied, the rubbish is strung,
AmGFmaj7
the carneval has come to town.
CFmaj7C
The window's still borded, the police are scared.
AmGC
Last week this whole city burned down.
CFmaj7C
There is no situation that they can't make worse.
AmGFmaj7
There's thirty-five-thousand arounds;
CFmaj7C
and they'll gravely chase after the fears or foes,
AmGC
provided their easily founds.
Fmaj7C
So, imagine the future, imagine a boot,
AmGFmaj7
imagine a human face.
CFmaj7C
And imagine a country where everyone's watched,
Fmaj7GC
and then firmly put back in their place.
CFmaj7C
From Ladbroke Grove Station to Nottinghill Gates,
AmGFmaj7
the market is dead, on its feet.
CFmaj7C
Past Orwells old house with dead looks in their eyes.
AmGC
And their clipboards, they march on the beat.
CFmaj7C
You could go after them with guitars in your hands,
AmGFmaj7
but they'll sure enough quickly deploy
CFmaj7C
drones that steal from you, choke you and shatter your bones.
AmGC
Those (...) always destroy.
Fmaj7C
So, imagine the future, imagine a boot,
AmGFmaj7
imagine a human face.
CFmaj7C
And imagine a country where everyone's watched,
Fmaj7GC
and then firmly put back in their place.
C, F, C, Am, G, F, C, F, C, Am, G, CCFmaj7C
So we gathered in silence in the back of the bar
AmGFmaj7
on the street where the bands used to play.
CFmaj7C
Nursing our drinks and cursing our luck,
AmGC
surely they don't deserve the last sake.
CFmaj7C
Raise your instruments high, and your voice to the sky,
AmGFmaj7
'cause it's all that we have for the fight.
CFmaj7C
But when they turn this all into one shopping mall,
AmGC
they'll finally sleep well at night.
Fmaj7C
So, imagine the future, imagine a booze,
AmGFmaj7
imagine a human face.
CFmaj7C
And imagine a country where everyone's watched,
Fmaj7GC
and then firmly put back in their place.
