Nation Of Checkout Girls Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]
[G]

[Verse 1]
A nation of [G]the finest shopkeepers
Now a nation of cloudy eyed
checkout [Am]girls[G]
Career opportunities love
You can stack the shelves
Or if you're lucky you can
work [Am]the till[C]s
And all the lads are packed off fighting
Now that you'd know
'Cause no one ever says a [G]word[C]
Blair's legacy a barrel of oil
Depression recession
It's a mess a bloody mess

[Interlude 1]
and that's all
[G][D]

[Verse 2]
Hello we're [D]the generation
Who [C]do what we're told
By the corporation hel[G]lo[D]
Hello we're the generation
[C]Who do what we're told
By the corporations [G]hello

[Verse 3]
[G]A n[Am]ation[G] of the finest shopkeepers
Now a nation that's quietly
answering [Am]call[G]s
Career opportunities love
You can man the phones
If you're lucky you'll
scrub the [Am]floor[C]s
And all the lads are packed off fighting
They never knew
Thought that they might see
the [G]world[C]
Shellshocked in a dusty old hell hole
Wishing for the kisses
Of a cloudy eyed checkout [G]girl

[Verse 4]
Yeah that's all
[D]
Hello we're the generation
[C]Who do what we're told
By the corporation hel[G]lo[D]
Hello we're the generation
[C]Who do what we're told
By the corporations [G]hello
Oh hello
[D]Hello [C]Hel[G]lo Hello
[D]Gener[C] at[G]ion corporation he[D]llo
Hello we're the generation
[C]Who do what we're told
By the corporation [G]hello
