This is just a really simple version of this excellent song. But it sounds good to me, so here you go.
Standard tuning - EADGBE
Intro - Em B Am C
[(C)]I'm sick of [Em]working for a living
I'm just [B]ticking off the days till I die
Oh, I miss you Lo[Am]uise, yeah...
And the [C]sickest little pleasures keep me going in between pulling teeth
[Em]Oh periscope up
I've been looking for a [B]ladder
I need to see the commander [Am]in chief
And [C]remind him what was passed onto me
Your[Em] mum don't sleep!
And the [B]friends you keep!
I didn't [Am]raise a thief![Em]
I didn't [B]raise a thief!
But [Am]the leaders of the free world
Are [G]just little boys throwing stones[B]
And [Am]it's easy to ignore
Till [G]they're knocking on the door of your homes[B]
(Solo - Em B Am C)
My [Em]thinking isn't driven
But the [B]music always gives me a lift
I'm so easy to[Am] please, yeah
But I [C]think we dropped the baton like the 60's didn't happen, oh no!
[Em]Oh periscope up
Should be looking for a [B]ladder
I need to see the commander in [Am]chief
And [C]remind him what was passed onto me
[Em]Your mum don't sleep!
And the [B]friends you keep!
I didn't [Am]raise a thief![Em]
I didn't [B]raise a thief!
But [Am]the leaders of the free world
Are [G]just little boys throwing stones[B]
And [Am]it's easy to ignore
Till they're [G]knocking on the door of your homes[B]
But [Am]the leaders of the free world
Are [G]just little boys throwing stones[B]
And [Am]it's easy to ignore
Till they're [G]knocking on the door of your homes[B]
[Em]Passing the gun from father to feckless so[B]n
We're [Am]climbing a landslide where only the good die y[C]oung
[Em]Passing the gun from father to feckless so[B]n
We're [Am]climbing a landslide where only the good die y[C]oung
