Rumours of War chords and lyrics - BILLY BRAGG

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]There were soldiers marching
on the common today
[C]They were there [F]again this
[C]evening
[Am]They paced up and down like
seabird[G]s on the ground
[Am]Before the storm clouds gathering

[Verse 2]
I must buy whatever [Am]tin food
is left [G]on the [Am]shelves
They're [C]testing [F]the air-raid sirens
[C]sirens
They've [Am]built up the blood-banks
and [G]and emptied the beds
At the [Am]hospital [Dm]and the [Am]asylum

[Verse 3]
[Am]
Saw a man build a shelter in
his garden today
As we stood [C]there [F]idly chat[C]ting
He [Am]said "No,
no I don't think [G]war will come"
[Am]Yet still he carried on digging

[Interlude 1]
[Am][C][F]
[C][Am][G][Am]
[F][Am]

[Verse 4]
Everything [Am]in my life th[G]at I l[Am]ove
Could be swept [C]away [F]without [C]warning
Yet the [Am]birds still sing and
the [G]church bells ring
And the [Am]sun came u[F]p [Am]this morning

[Verse 5]
Life goes on as it [G]did before
As the [Am]country drifts [G]slowly to war
