Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][C][G][D][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Margareth
[D]Thatcher on [C]TV
Shocked by [G]the deaths that
took [D]place in [C]Beijing
It seems [G]strange [D]that [G]she
[D]should be offen[C]ded
The same [G]orders [D]are given by her
[C]

[Verse 2]
[G]I've said thi[D]s before now[C]
You said I [G]was childish an[D]d
you'll say it [C]now[G]
[D]"Remember what I [C]told you
If [G]they hated [D]me they will
[C]hate you"

[Verse 3]
[C]
England's not [G]the mythical [D]land of
[Am]Madame [C]George and roses
[G]It's the home of po[D]lice who
kill black [Am]boys [C]on [G]mopeds
And I love my [D]boy and
[C]that's [Am]why I[C]'m leaving
[G]I don't want him to be
[D]aware that there's
[C]Any such thing as grieving

[Verse 4]
[C]
[G]Young [D]mother down at Smithfield
[C]5 a[G]m, looking for foo[D]d for her kids
[C]In her arm[G]s she holds thr[D]ee cold babies
[C]And[G] the first word that they
[D]learned was "please"
[C]

[Verse 5]
[G]These are danger[D]ous [C]days
To say [G]what you feel [D]is to [G]dig
[D]your own [C]grave[G]
"Remem[D]ber what [G]I t[C]old you
If you [G]were of [D]the world [G]they
[D]would [C]love you"

[Verse 6]
[C]
England's not the [G]mythical [D]land of
Madame [C]George and roses
It's the [G]home of po[D]lice who
kill [C]blacks boys on mopeds
[G]And I love my [D]boy and
[C]that's why I'm leaving
[G]I don't want him to be
[D]aware that there's
[C]Any such thing as grieving

[Outro 1]
