Cannons

Key: AHard

Not entirely happy with this but let me know what you think :) - Hayley x

Look alive

Pick a side

Draw a line

In the sand

You're just the band

TheyD treat us like we're extras in an Cepic

They Dtreat us like we're mud on their booCts

They Bbleave us on the stretchers when the Ccredits roll

ReDtreating safely to institCutes

Where dinner Dparty military foCrces

Toast themDselves with the blood of us aCll

BbSmashing regimes between coCurses

Chanting eduDcation, education and Cwar

A G We're gonna need a lot more cannons

A D If you wanna be hGome by Christmas

A D If we're gonna be Ghome by Christmas

I Fknow there is another way

If youC want to see their face again

And I kAmnow they feel the same way

over Emthere

DThey're making all the difficult deCcisions

PutD politicians and childreCn first

BbFollowed by their personal phyCsicians who say

You will be Dhappy if you expect the Cworst

Armed with Dpaper straws and a Cbible

Lamps are going Dout across

department Cstores

You will be Bbissued with a rifle

on arCrival chaps

For eduDcation, education and Cwar

A G We're gonna need a lot more cannons

A D If you wanna be hGome by Christmas

A D If we're gonna be Ghome by Christmas

I Fknow there is another way

If youC want to see their face again

And I kAmnow they feel the same way

over Emthere

I Fknow there is another way

If youC want to see their face again

And I kAmnow they feel the same way

over Emthere

Show us the way to go

Hell or heaven help us

Show us the way to go

Save our souls

Show us the way back home

Save our souls

Show us the way to go

(I play this build up bit muted and using power chords)

Record Collection

Key: GmHard

GmBbF

GmI'm a record collection, a dedicated section

BbI'm a memory of everyFthing you've ever seen and ever done

GmI'm a subtle seduction, I am out of corruption

BbI'm a God enlightened, cleaned up, Fheightened reenactment of your day

GmI'm a hidden agenda, hidden in the credenza

BbIn the darkest corner of the Froom inside the room inside your head

GmUh-huh, inside your Bbhead

Inside your Dmhead, inside your head, uh

EbSit back and Frelapse into the Gmworld we built for Bbyou

Where Ebeverything you Fneed is on its Dmway Bbnow

EbMake yourself at Fhome, my extraGmordinary Bbfriend

Where Ebeverything is Fokay in the Gmend

Post-Chorus

GmThinking of a number, whispered in our gun

BbCold hidden, pass it hard, Fzero, zero, zero, one

GmPlay us one more number, give us one more song

BbTell us one we've heard before, Fzero, zero, zero, more

GmArchitecturally speaking, 50 gram is a weakling

BbI'm a city planner with a Fstammer who cut down New York, New York

GmFrom the tip of a rhino, fuck it if I know

BbI'm the unexpected, twist your Fendless laundry list of heinous crimes

GmTake a vital suggestion, rig an election

BbI'm the hidden top line of the Ftune that's on a loop inside your mind

GmUh-huh, inside your Bbmind

Inside your Dmmind, inside your mind, uh

EbSit back and Frelapse into the Gmworld we built for Bbyou

Where Ebeverything you Fneed is on its Dmway Bbnow

BbCold hidden, pass it hard, Fzero, zero, zero, one

GmPlay us one more number, give us one more song

BbTell us one we've heard before, Fzero, zero, zero, more

EbOn an endless Fcorridor beGmhind each hidden Bbdoor

EbInfinity at Fone more never Gmending bidding Bbwar

EbSend us your deFtails, my extraGmordinary Bbfriend

Dont Just Stand There Do Something

Key: EHard

F#5

She were lying in the bathroom E5 A5

I was banging on the G5door F#5

She was crying in a puddleE5 A5

On the laminate fG5loor F#5

I was screaming "lCet me in

You've had Gtoo much gin

The Cdoor unlocked, Gmy heart stopped

I froze,B and she said

E5A5G5F#5

A 24-hour garageE5 A5

And it's in my hG5and F#5

As a telephone it's average E5 A5

But it's worth a G5grand F#5

A Cgang of youth

Stop Gthrowing abuse

Your Dmoney or your Nikes, do IEm have to choose?

All Cpride lost, stood in myG socks

I Bfroze, and I thought

E5Don't just stand, don't just stand there

E5Don't just stand there, do something

E5Don't just stand, don't just stand there

That everythingEm you say and do C

PotentiallGy could change tomBorrow

C And if you're Gall still sleeping Bthere

Without the pEmower, without a cCare

Don't mention Gme when your alBarm goes, yeah

Life is just a beer garden E5 A5

A sunny afternoG5on F#5

There's always one drunk hard maE5n A5

Singing out of G5tune F#5

A pClastic chair flies Gthrough the air

The Dlager tops go eEmverywhere

The Cjukebox clicks, a rGecord sticks

And weB froze, everybody sang

E5Don't just stand, don't just stand there

E5Don't just stand there, do something

E5Don't just stand, don't just stand there

E5Don't just stand there, do something
