Verse 1
Well they tied (D major) that
yellow rib (E minor) bon round the (B minor) oak tree.
They've (D major) worn out all the
prayer (E minor) in their hearts. (B minor)
All along (G major) thought they were
(D major) routing for the home (A major) team,
As they're sent (G major) to the game
and torn apart.
(A major)
