Chord/Tab song: Harrowdown Hill

___________________
/ Thom Yorke / This song is about David Kelly, a former weapon
/ Harrowdown Hill / inspector in Iraq at the time Saddam Hussein was still
/ The Eraser / in charge and who truly knew about the situation
/__________________/ concerning weapons of mass destruction ' the government's
official justification for invading Iraq. His evidence
questioned the entire situation as it proved that there of course wasn't any
threat at all. This evidence pulled him through a massive storm of attention
as he now had to stand uagainst his own country all by himself. This unbearable
pressure forced him to take the ultimate consequence. (Some conspiracies say
that he was murdered, but no matter what the government truly knew that this
might be the result of the weight on his shoulders!) The 17th of July Kelly's
body was found in the woods of Harrowdown Hill. He had overdosed himself with
medicine and cut his left wrist with a knife had owned since his youth.

Don't walk the [Bm]plank like I did
You will [Bm]be dispensed with
When [G]you've become incon[G]venient
Up on [Bm]harrowdown hill
There where you [Bm]used to go to school
That's [G]where I am
That's where I'm [G]lying down

Did I [Bm]fall or was I pushed?
Did I [Bm]fall or was I pushed?
And [G]where's the blood?
And [G]where's the blood?

I'm coming [A]home, I'm coming home
To make it all [A]right, so dry your eyes

We think the [G]same things at the same time
We just can't [G]do anything about it
[A] We think the [A]same things at the same time
We just can't [G]do anything about it

[G] So don't ask [A]me, ask the ministry
Don't ask [A]me, ask the ministry

We think the [G]same things at the same time
There are so [G]many of us so you can't [Em]count
We think the [Em]same things at the same time
There are too [G]many of us so you can't count

Can you [Bm]see me when I'm running?
Can you [Bm]see me when I'm running?
A[G]way from them
A[G]way from them

I can't [Bm]take their pressure
No one [Bm]cares if you live or die
They just [G]want me gone
They [G]want me gone

I'm coming [A]home, I'm coming home
To make it all [A]right, so dry your eyes
We think the [G]same things at the same time
We just can't [G]do anything about it

[Em] We think the [Em]same things at the same time
There are too [G]many of us so you can't
There are too [G]many of us so you can't [Bm6]count

Then I was [Bm]led into a backroom at Harrowdown Hill
Then I was [Bm]led into the back at Harrowdown Hill
It was a [G]slippery, slippery, slippery slope
It was a [A]slippery, slippery, slippery slope
I feel me [Em]slipping in and out of consciousness
I feel me [Em]slipping in and out of consciousness
I feel me...[Bm]
