Anthem For Doomed Youth

Key: CHard

CC7CC7EmFAmBbG

Riff 1 Riff 2

CHere's a sC7tory about the rCules of death and C7glory

Em (Riff 1)

To be learned by heart by all children of men

It's the Fhour of the morning on the Amday after the dawning

When the Bbsun they said would never set fGinally set again

Was it cCromwell or C7orwell who first lCed you to the sC7tairwell

Em (Riff 2)

Which leads only forever to kingdom come

Rushed alFone by guiding hands whAmispers of the promised land

They wBbished you luck and handed you a gGun G G

Life could be so hCandsome G G

Life could be so gCay G G

We're going nCowhere

But nBbowhere, nowhere's on our wGay

CIn the pub that nC7ight racking Cout the lines of sC7hite

Em (Riff 1)

Putting to right all of the world's great wrongs

Yes we tFhought that they were brothers then they hAmalf-murdered each other

Then they dBbid a karaoke turn and mGurdered our best song

CTold the governor's C7wife about the lCast night of his lC7ife

Em (Riff 1)

She turned away in tears called you a liar

Where are Fall the old dreams now? the baAmtallions, once so proud

BbLost in some old song and hanging Gon the old barbedwire G G

Life could be so hCandsome G G

It's so good to be oCkay G G

We're going nCowhere

But nBbowhere, nowhere's on our wGay

CNowhere in the instC7itutions did they tCeach that revC7olution

Em (Riff 1)

Was something that could ever come to pass

Oh we tFried one, once before was the kAming's head on the floor

And we got bBbooted out the boozer cause sGomeone smashed the glass G G

Life could be so hCandsome G G

Life could be oCkay G G

We're going nCowhere

But nBbowhere, nowhere's on our wGay G G

Life could be so hCandsome G G

It's all gonna be okCay G G

We're going nCowhere

Death On The Stairs

Key: GmHard

F#m

Riff

CmF

AFrom way far across the sea

FCame an eritsean maiden she

GmHad a one track mind and eyes for me

GmHalf blinded in the war

CmWith a pale young anglican

FWho said he'd help her all he can

AShowed her Jesus and his little un-holy frieDnd

CmShe had no mind to please him

FJust say 'ta-ra' and leave him bAehind

AThere's a little boy in a stairwell who say

F"I hate people like you"

GmGot matches & cable TV half of less than 50p

CmWe all clambered over the balcony

FBanging on the window waking steve

ABringing with a new love his un-holy fDriend

CmIf you really need it you Fmustn't leave it Abehind

Chorus

APlease kill me no Ddon't kill me

FBut don't bring that ghost round to my door

I don't wanna see them F#manymore

APlease kill me no Ddon't kill me

FBut don't bang on about yesterday

I wouldn't know about that anyway

AMonkey asked the mouse before

FIf she loved anybody Gmmore than he

It turns you into stone

Now i'm revCmersing down this lonely street

FTo a cheap hotel when i can meet the Apast

And pay it off and Dkeep it sweet

CmIt's sweet like nothing all

FIt's sweet like nothing at Aall

AYes i've seen you there how could i Fhelp but stare

GmIt rips the heart out off your body

Now i've taken far Cmtoo much to think

OFr see or touch what's real i'm stAranded on this street that

Paved my only Dway home

CmYou really need it Fyou just won't leave it bAehind

Chorus

CmHe got nothing he

FHe got nothing he got nothing at Aall
