E E/D#
Sired to the House of Lords
E/C# E/B
(these days they call them 'Co-Op Boards'),
A E
and now it's in my royal blood
A E
to vote and vote and vote and vote
A E
on things that never change...
F#m B
Gods give and gods give our gifts away...

Settle down, trembling peacock...

on the day they declared it bankrupt and

Lovers of the air, beware...

gonna show you the way to my heart...
