Ami
I'm sick of working for a living
         E
I'm just ticking off the days till I die
                  Dmi
Oh, I miss you Louise, yeah...
        F
And the sickest little pleasures keep me going in between pulling teeth

Oh periscope up
I've been looking for a ladder
I need to see the commander in chief
And remind him what was passed onto me

     Ami
Your mum don't sleep!
        E
And the friends you keep!
         Dmi             Ami
I didn't raise a thief! 
         E
I didn't raise a thief!

But the Dmileaders of the free world
    C                          E
Are just little boys throwing  stones
         Dmi
And it's easy to ignore
             C                             E
Till they're knocking on the door of your  homes

   Ami
My thinking isn't driven
        E
But the music always gives me a lift
               Dmi
I'm so easy to please, yeah
               F
But I think we dropped the baton like the 60's didn't happen, oh no!

Oh periscope up
Should be looking for a ladder
I need to see the commander in chief
And remind him what was passed onto me

     Ami
Your mum don't sleep!
        E
And the friends you keep!
         Dmi             Ami
I didn't raise a thief! 
         E
I didn't raise a thief!

        Dmi
But the leaders of the free world
    C                          E
Are just little boys throwing  stones
         Dmi
And it's easy to ignore
               C                            E
Till they're k nocking on the door of your  homes 2x

Ami                                     E
Passing the gun from father to feckless son
      Dmi                                          F
We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young  (2x)
