[Verse 1]
[A]Margaret That[E]cher on [D]TV
Shocked by the [A]deaths
that took [E]place in Bei[D]jing
It seems [A]strange
that she [E]should be off[D]ended
The same [A]orders are [E]given by [D]her

[Verse 2]
[A]I've said thi[E]s before now[D]
You said I was [A]childish
and [E]you'll say it [D]now
[A]Remember[E] what I tol[D]d you:
If [A]they hated [E]me
they will [D]hate you

[Chorus 1]
England's not the [A]mythical [E]land
of [D]Madame George and roses
It's the [A]home of po[E]lice who kill
[D]black boys on mopeds
And [A]I love my b[E]oy
and [D]that's why I'm leaving
I don't [A]want him to be a[E]ware that there's
[D]Any such thing as grieving

[Verse 3]
[A]Young mother [E]down at Smith[D]field
5 am, [A]looking for [E]food for her [D]kids
In her [A]arms she holds [E]three cold ba[D]bies
And the [A]first word that [E]they learned
was [D]"please"

[Verse 4]
[A]These are dan[E]gerous day[D]s
To say what you [A]feel
is to [E]dig
your own [D]grave
[A]Remember[E] what I tol[D]d you:
If you [A]were of the [E]world
they would [D]love you

[Chorus 2]
England's not the [A]mythical [E]land
of [D]Madame George and roses
It's the [A]home of po[E]lice who kill
[D]black boys on mopeds
[A]And I love my [E]boy
and [D]that's why I'm leaving
I don't [A]want him to be a[E]ware that there's
[D]Any such thing as grieving

[Outro 1]
[A]Ooh...[E][D][D]
[A]Ooh...[E][D][D]
[A]Ooh...[E][D][D]
[A]Ooh...[E][D]
