(C) Am
I'm sick of working for a living
E
I'm just ticking off the days till I die
Dm
Oh, I miss you Louise, yeah...
F
And the sickest little pleasures keep me going in between pulling teeth
Am
Oh periscope up
E
I've been looking for a ladder
Dm
I need to see the commander in chief
F
And remind him what was passed onto me
Am
Your mum don't sleep!
E
And the friends you keep!
Dm Am
I didn't raise a thief!
E
I didn't raise a thief!
Dm
But the leaders of the free world
C E
Are just little boys throwing stones
Dm
And it's easy to ignore
C E
Till they're knocking on the door of your homes

Passing the gun from father to feckless son

We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young
