Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G5][D][G5][D][C][D][G5]
[D][G5][D][C]

[Verse 1]
[D]You don't [Em]read it in the papers,
you don't [D]see it on TV
Cause there's [Am]painting on the whitewash
to hide the truth [Bm]from [B]you and me
It's like a [Em]cheap detective story
The script is [D]really second -rate
Only [Am]this one's got no heroes
And the [B]crime's just a mistake,
[Em]yeah[B][Em][B]
We've [Em]got our civic leaders
And we've [D]got our boys in blue
But [Am]who the hell tells them
Just what [A]they [Bm]can and can[B]not do?
I [Em]know to err is human,
to for[D]give is just divine
But it [Am]seems they've looked the other way
[Bm]far [B]too many times
We gotta [C]hush it up,
the [Em]boys have been naughty [D]again
We gotta [C]cover up,
an[Em]d watch as no one else can [D]blame
We gotta [C]hush it up,
the [Em]boys have been naughty [D]again
We've got to [C]cover up
as [Em]much as no one else can [D]frame
Give it up for the big [G5]boys[D][G5][D][C]
[D]Give it up for the big [G5]boys[D][G5][D][C][D]
[Em][C][D][C][B]
[Bm][C][Am][Em][Bm][B]
We got [C]Hustle Up,
the [Em]boys have been naughty [D]again
We got [C]Cover Up,
they [Em]must have someone else to [D]blame[C][Em]
[D][C][Em][D][C]
[Em][D][C][Em][D][C]
[Em][D][C]
Cover it up,
and [Em]watch as someone else can [D]frame
You're not a part of it
[G5]boys[D][G5][D][C]
[D]You're not a part of it boys

[Outro 1]
