Intro
E A E C#m B x2
E A
Father mows the lawn and Mother peels potatoes
E C#m B
Grandma lays the table alone
E A
And adjusts a photograph of the unknown soldier
E C#m B
In this Holy of Holies the Home
A E F#m G#m
And from the TV an unwatched voice
A E F#m G#m
Suggests the answer is to plant more trees
A E F#m G#m
The scrawl on the wall says what about the workers
A E F#m G#m
And the voice of the people says more salt please
E A
Mother shakes her head and reads aloud from the newspaper
E C#m B
And Father puts another lock on the door
E A
And reflects upon the violent times that we are living in
E C#m B
While chatting to the wife beater next door
A E F#m G#m
If paradise to you is cheap beer and overtime
A E F#m G#m
Home truths are easily missed
A E F#m G#m
Something that every football fan knows
A E F#m B C#m
It only takes five fingers to form a fist
B F#m G#m
And when it rains here, it rains so hard
F#m G#m A B
But never hard enough to wash away the sorrow
F#m G#m A B
I'll trade my love today for a greater love tomorrow
F#m G#m A B
The lonely child looks out and dreams of independence
F#m G#m A B
From this family life sentence
E A
Mother sees but does not read the peeling posters
E C#m B
And can't believe that there's a world to be won
E A
But in the public schools and in the public houses
E C#m B
The Battle of Britain goes on
A E F#m G#m
The constant promise of jam tomorrow
A E F#m G#m
Is the New Breeds litany and verse
A E F#m G#m
If it takes another war to fill the churches of England
A E F#m G#m
Then the world the meek inherit, what will it be worth
E A
Mother fights the tears and father, his sense of outrage
E C#m B
And attempts to justify the sacrifice
E A
To pass their creed down to another generation
E C#m B
Anything for the quite life
A E F#m G#m
In the Land of a Thousand Doses
A E F#m G#m
Where nostalgia is the opium of the age
A E F#m G#m
Our place in history is as clock watchers
A E F#m G#m
Old timers, window shoppers
[Outro]
E A E C#m B x4
Fade into Blake's Jerusalem...
