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

[Verse 1]
All the [D]stories have been told
Of [C]kings and days [G]of old
But there's no [D]England now
[F](th[C]ere's no England now[D])
All the wars that were won and lost
[C]Somehow don[G]'t seem to matter
very [D]much [F]anymore[C]
[D]All the lies we were told
(all the lies [C]we were told)
All the lies of the [G]people running round
Their [D]castles [F]have burned[C]
[D]I see change
But in[C]side we're the [G]same
As [D]we ever were

[Verse 2]
[D]Living on a thin line, [C]oo [G]h
Tell me now,
what [D]are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line (living on a thin
[C]line), ooh[G]
Tell me now,
what are we supposed [D]to do?

[Verse 3]
[D]Living on a thin line
(living on a thin line)
[C]Living this way, each [G]day is a dream
What am I, what are we [D]supposed to do?
Living on a thin line (living on
a thin [C]line), oo[G] h
Tell me now,
what are we supposed [D]to [C]do?
Now an[G]other century nearly

[Verse 4]
[D]
[C]gone (no, no)
What are we [G]gonna [D]leave
for the young?
What we [C]couldn't do,
what we [G]wouldn't do
It's a [D]crime, but does it matter?
Does it [C]matter much? does it
[G]matter much to you?
Does it [D]ever really matter? yes,

[Verse 5]
it really, really matters
[D]Living on a thin line (living on a
thin [C]line), oo[G] h
Tell me now,
what are we supposed [D]to do?
Living on a thin line (living on a thin
[C]line), oo[G] h
Tell me now,
what are we supposed [D]to [F]do?

[Verse 6]
Then another leader [G]says
"Break their hearts and break
some [Em]heads"
Is there nothing we can say or [F]do?[Am]
Blame the future on the pas[G]t
Always lost in bloody [C]guts
And when they're gone,
[D]it's me and you

[Verse 7]
Living on a thin line, [C]oo [G]h
Tell me now,
what are we [D]supposed to do?
Living on a thin line (living on a
[C]thin line), oo[G] h
Tell me now,
what are we supposed [D]to do?
Living on a thin line,

[Outro 1]
ooh
