[Intro 1]
[F][G][Am][F][G][Am][F][G][Am][F][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]News
[F]in the[Am] city bre[Dm]ak s [F]without pity[Am][G]
[Em]Long after the w[Am]ar has ended
We're [Bb]still in fa[Am]tigues[F]
[G]Up against [Am]it
The [F]higher you [G]fly the further you [Am]fall
[F]Up [G]against it[Am]
[F]Wondering [G]why we fought
after [Am]all[Dm]
[F]Such a cold [Am]winter with [Dm]scenes[F]
As slow [Am]as P[G]inter[Em]
Synchronise [Am]your watches
There's [Bb]still time to [Am]kill[F]
[G]Up against [Am]it
[F]Drinking this [G]swill to sweeten [Am]the pill
[F]Up [G]against it[Am]
[F]The more that it [G]hurts
The less that [Am]it w[Bm]orks
Wrapped in nos[C]talgia to queue
[Am]for a sh[D]ow[Bm]
Back to [C]Trafalgar one [Am]kiss
[Dsus4]then I'll[D] go[Dm][F]
So deep in [Am]quicklime
The [Dm]bones [F]of an [Am]old cri[G]me[Em]
I knew a man who [Am]raked them over
He's [Bb]still suffer[Am]ing[F]
[G]Up against [Am]it
[F]Buried so [G]deep
It gives me the [Am]creeps
[F]Up[G][Am][F][G][Am][F][G]
against [Am]it
[F]The longer you [G]hate
The more that it [Am]grates
[F]Up [G]against it[Am]
[F]Look left [G]then right
And run for [F]your [G]Life[Am][F][G][Am][F][G][Am][F][G]
[Am][F][G][Am][F][G][Am][F][G][Em][Am][F][G]
[Am]
[F]Up [G]against it[Am][F][G]
[Am]The more that it hurts
The less that it works
