Primeiro acorde: G 6 acordes identificados

CAPO: 2nd Fret

Intro: G C G C G

C

Well, friends, hereby hangs a tale

G

The year was nineteen thirty-one

C

A good job digging for the king

G

While there's so many on the bum

Em D

I'd done my time across in France

C

Fought at Moreaux and at Vimy

G C

Done my service for my country

D G

Thought I'd put the guns behind me

C

I should have known it from the start

G

Peace may be signed between two nations

C

But for protection of your rights

G

My friends, it's always battle stations

Em D

And so it was the union boys

C

Set up shop there in the coalfields

G C

Said that they would be our voice

D G

Said that they would be our shield

INTERLUDE: C G C G

C

They said just a little march

G

Across the town and past the station

C

Some fine strong speakers and a band

G

A fairly peaceful congregation

Em D

Let them know that we were strong

C

Show them we could be united

G C

Show them we had found our voice

D G

And that we would not be frightened

C

I should have known it from the start

G

Workers marching makes them nervous

C

I saw no menace in our group

G

Peaceful of heart and stout of purpose

Em D

The local peelers were forewarned

C

It's sure as hell they were forearmed

G C

How could we cause them any trouble?

D G

How could they be so alarmed?

INTERLUDE: C G C G

C

Armed with truncheons and with guns

G

They took their line across the road

C

Their faces cast in stone

G

I heard the call to aim and load

Em D

Saw the deadly muzzle flash

C G

Saw the people drop around me

C

Took a bullet to the leg

D G

My friends, and that is how they found me

C

I should have known it from the start

G

Should have seen the trouble coming

C

Seen the ugly twist of fate

G

Turned my tail and started running

Em D

Known when push has come to shove

C

And it's a heavy hand that feeds you

G C

That the job that was your life

D G F

Becomes the job that slowly beats you

Bridge:

C G F

No use, no use, for the ranting of the government men

C G F

No use, for their fine print and their fountain pen

C G

No use, no use in me denying

F C

This small rebellion's over, but I'm leaving here unbowed

INTERLUDE: C G C G

C

And when the dust had finally cleared

G

When all dissent had been put down

C

I packed my life in two worn bags

G

Caught the train and left the town

Em D

In this case justice sure was blind

C

At least blind to human suffering

G C

They said they'd put us in our place

D G

And I guess they weren't bluffing

C

I should have known it from the start

G

It's not the truth that really matters

C

The real world tramples on such things

G

Leaves your mental state in tatters

Em D

Makes the blowing prairie dust

C

Seem like it is stationary

G C

Makes the proudest person humble

D G

And the strongest person wary

G C

Makes the proudest person humble

D G C D G

And the strongest person wary
