[Intro]
A7
[Verse 1]
D F#m
Did you see the stylish kids in the riot?
Bm G G G G
Shovelled up like muck, and set the night on fire.
G G D F#m
Wombles bleed. Truncheons and Shields,
G A
You know I cherish you my love.
[Verse 2]
D F#m
But there's a rumour spread nasty disease around town,
Bm G G G G
Caught round the houses with your trousers down.
G G D F#m G A
A head rush, in the bush, you know I cherish you my love.
G A A A G# G
Oh, how I cherish you my love,
[Chorus 1]
Gm
Tell me what can you want, now you've got it all.
D D7 G E
Ah the scene is obscene, time'll strip it away, a year and a day.
A
And Bill Bones, Bill Bones knows what I mean,
D F#m
He knows it's eating, it's chewing me up,
Bm G G G G G
And it's not right for young lungs to be coughing up blood...
[Verse 3]
G D F#m G A
It's all, it's all in my hands, and it's all up the walls.
D F#m
All the stale chips are up, and they hope stakes are down,
Bm G G G G G
It's these ignorant faces, they bring this town down.
G D F#m
I sighed, and sunken with pride,
G A
I passed myself down on my knees,
G A A A G# G
Yes I passed myself down on my knees,
[Chorus 2]
Gm D
Now tell me what can you want, see you've got it all.
D7
The whole scene is obscene,
G E
Time will strip it away, a year and a day.
A
And Bill Bones, Bill Bones knows what I mean.
D F#m
He knows there's fewer more distressing sights,
Bm G G G
Then that of an English man in a baseball cap.
G G D F#m
Now we'll die in the class we were born,
G A
And that's a class of our own, my love.
G A
A class of our own, my love.
