From: gilbert@mis.gla.ac.uk (Gilbert McErlane) Ideology - Billy Bragg (Talking to the Taxman about Poetry) ----------------------------------------------------------- - chords - gilbert@salyut.mis.gla.ac.uk (lyrics from cs.uwp.edu) Brilliant Bragg-style ringing chords in this one (for which I don't know all the names) - so give it laldy!! E 022100 E2 002200 B 004400 A 577655 C#m 446654 B2 799877
WhenE one voice rules the naE2tion Just becauEse they're top of the pE2ile EDoesn't mean their visiE2on is Bthe clEearE2est
(repeat pattern) The voices of the people Are falling on deaf ears Our politicians all become careerists
AThey must declare their interests EBut not their company cars Is there Emore to a seat in the ParC#mliament Than F#msitting on your aB2rse
(pattern 1) And the best of all this bad bunch Are shouting to be heard Above the sound of ideologies clashing (pattern 1) Outside the patient millions Who put them into power Expect a little more back for their taxes (pattern 1) Like schools books,beds in hospitals And peace in our bloody time All they get is old men grinding axes (pattern 2) Who've built their private fortunes On the things they can rely The courts,the secret handshake The Stock Exchange and the old school tie (pattern 1) For God and Queen and Country All things they justify Above the sound of ideologies clashing (pattern 1) God bless the Civil Service The nations saving grace While we expect democracy They're laughing in our face And although our cries get louder Their laughter gets louder still Above the sound of ideologies clashing finish on C#m more to come - eventually. ** Gil McErlane Management Information Services - Physical Resources Team University of Glasgow E-mail: gilbert@salyut.mis.gla.ac.uk "If you're not part of the solution, then you're part of the precipitate" - Steven Wright
