___________________ / Thom Yorke / This song is about David Kelly, a former weapon / Harrowdown Hill / inspector in Iraq at the time Saddam Hussein was still / The Eraser / in charge and who truly knew about the situation /__________________/ concerning weapons of mass destruction – the government's official justification for invading Iraq. His evidence questioned the entire situation as it proved that there of course wasn't any threat at all. This evidence pulled him through a massive storm of attention from the medias and put him under an unbearable pressure from his own government as he now had to stand uagainst his own country all by himself. This unbearable pressure forced him to take the ultimate consequence. (Some conspiracies say that he was murdered, but no matter what the government truly knew that this might be the result of the weight on his shoulders!) The 17th of July Kelly's body was found in the woods of Harrowdown Hill. He had overdosed himself with medicine and cut his left wrist with a knife had owned since his youth.
Don't walk the Bmplank like I did You will Bmbe dispensed with When Gyou've become inconGvenient Up on Bmharrowdown hill There where you Bmused to go to school That's Gwhere I am That's where I'm Glying down
Did I Bmfall or was I pushed' Did I Bmfall or was I pushed' And Gwhere's the blood' And Gwhere's the blood'
I'm coming Ahome, I'm coming home To make it all Aright, so dry your eyes
We think the Gsame things at the same time We just can't Gdo anything about it A We think the Asame things at the same time We just can't Gdo anything about it
G So don't ask Ame, ask the ministry Don't ask Ame, ask the ministry
We think the Gsame things at the same time There are so Gmany of us so you can't Emcount We think the Emsame things at the same time There are too Gmany of us so you can't count
Can you Bmsee me when I'm running' Can you Bmsee me when I'm running' AGway from them AGway from them
I can't Bmtake their pressure No one Bmcares if you live or die They just Gwant me gone They Gwant me gone
I'm coming Ahome, I'm coming home To make it all Aright, so dry your eyes We think the Gsame things at the same time We just can't Gdo anything about it
Em We think the Emsame things at the same time There are too Gmany of us so you can't There are too Gmany of us so you can't Bm6count
Then I was Bmled into a backroom at Harrowdown Hill Then I was Bmled into the back at Harrowdown Hill It was a Gslippery, slippery, slippery slope It was a Aslippery, slippery, slippery slope I feel me Emslipping in and out of consciousness I feel me Emslipping in and out of consciousness I feel me...
