[Am]
(Heaton rotheray)
I'm [Em]walking through these pastures
[Am]I'm [Em]picking up sw[C]eet fruit[Bm]
I'm [Em]shaking [C]han[Bm]ds with people
That previ[Em]ously [C]i'd [Bm]shoot

[Em]And [Am]you tend to meet a[Em]
[C]lot [Bm]of scum en route
[Em]It doesn't m[C]ean yo[Bm]u've
joined the other [Em]side[C]
And because [Bm]i still wear shorts
and [Em]my smile i[C]s oh so cute
It [Bm]doesn't mean i'll run away and [C#m]hide

To [Em]a world [C]where the lead

Where [Em]crime[C]

[Bm]They're laughing and they're drinking
On the [Em]swill of [C]overtime
And no- one seems [Bm]to know about
The [Em]death- wish that they've signed
Ah, [C]life's unkind

And no- one seems [Am]to know
[Em]about
The death- wish [Am]that
they've signed
Ah, life's un[Em]kind
Ah, life's unkind
Life's unkind, life's unkind
From poor old u2 [Am]to
poor old simple minds

Rope [Em]or gas, rope or gas,
rope or gas
No amnesty [Am]for murderers
of poor old working class
[Em]Rope or gas, rope or gas
