Verse 1
D

When they sell the final weapon,

we can all watch it blow

Keep the people working, working

Keep the people working, working

Keep the people working, working
Verse 2

Gotta keep the people working
D

In the bed of iron they cast

the final weapon

Just to keep the people working,
Verse 3

got to keep the people working
D


From the mines of anatolia to

the isle of mandalay

Along the coast of sullen africa,

they're queuing up to pay

No cause, I don't discriminate,

I sell to those who buy

There never was an innocent who
G
D
G
D

didn't want to die

And with demand upon the increase

what could keep the cost down

If I keep the people fighting,

I can really go to town

No surprise, the cash you borrow,

we can close the deal tomorrow

Just swiss francs or dollars won't
Verse 4

cause me any borrow, boy
D

In a bed of iron they cast the final weapon

Just to keep the people working,

got to keep the people working

In a bed of iron they cast the final weapon

Just to keep the people working,
Verse 5

got to keep the people working
D

Everybody itching for someone

to serve the task

I'll arm the politician for the coup,

the crew, the cast,

I have a score of different faces,

I can look like a lord

Seen in high places,
Verse 6

flying on the concorde
D


Well you can marvel at precision,

you can dial a telephone

Call up color vision from the

safety of your home

You can mount the great offensive

from a button by the chair

If you arm the right system,

you can ionize the air
Verse 7
D

In a bed of iron, they cast the final weapon

Just to keep the people working,

got to keep the people working

In a bed or iron they cast the final weapon

Just to keep the people working,

got to keep the people working

Like the wind across the frontier

or the breaking light of day

I push across the mountains,

all around the bay of biscay
Verse 8
D

Freeze in north america, boil in pakistan

All along the amazon,
Verse 9

from the fire to the frying pan
D


Whether air, sea or battle ground,

desert sand or snow

When they sell the final weapon we can all watch it

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
