Tripod (Australia) - Underground

^BmTake a look round ^Emlively old London ^BmBuzzing crowds we ^F#msweat and we revel, ^EmRed-cheeked shouts and ^F#msongs In the flicker of the ^Bmgaslight. ^{Bm/A Bm}Eager Blighty ^Embursts from the cobblestones ^BmRacing, climbing, ^F#mblooming fertility ^EmBorn from secret ^F#mseeds that were scattered in the ^Bmnight time.

^BmLondon is fed upon the ^F#mmeat of the dead. ^EmThey're one shallow inch below the ^F#mtown. ^EmUnderground ^Bmunderground ^F#mleave them under^Bmground.

^BmThem that whispered ^Emdreams that only poisoned us ^BmThem that told us ^F#mlies of their bravery ^EmThem that preached of ^F#mprogress and put us in the ^Bmpoorhouse. ^{Bm/A Bm}Them done horrid m^Emurder on bloody stages ^BmThem that loudly ^F#mcrowed their humility ^EmLords and dames that ^F#msung in the chapels on a ^BmSunday

^BmAll quiet now their mouths are ^F#mstopped by mud ^EmThey lie flung in rags and make no ^F#msound. ^EmUnderground ^Bmunderground ^F#mleave them under^Bmground.

^DThose who fought for something better ^AThose who taught by ^Emhow they lived. ^GLoved ones taken ^Along before their ^Bmwork was done. ^EmUnderground, ^BmUnderground, ^Aleave them Under^Bmground (x4)
