Verse 1
Gm
Yesterday I swore to you
F
we'd go without a fight
But that's before they beat her
Gm
down to let the spark ignite
The cops get to her, laughed at her,
F
broken on the floor
And when she tried to raise herself,
Gm
they said she wants some more
Our lady is a redhead thing,
F
fierce and yet serene
But this girl's a fighter,
Gm
she's the bearer of my dreams
Her father was a drinking man,
F
he'd take his belt to her
Dm
F
And since she kicked his balls in,
Gm
I'm a life suburbia
Bb
The dice are loaded, the deck is stacked
F
The game is rigged, she's turning back
C
Now they are upon us,
Gm
the men who would be king
Bb
We hold our love, we hold our hope,
F
we do no following
C
Now they are upon us
Dm
Gm
The men who would be king
So we brace ourselves again
for yet another charge
F
For plastic shields, iron bars,
Gm
and advertising boards
Against this tide of rising hate
we'll let go of our fears
F
For every class that infiltrates
Gm
we shed another tear
Bb
The dice are low, the deck is stacked,
F
the game is rich in turn and back
C
Now they are upon us,
Gm
the men who have became
Bb
We hold our love, we hold our hope,
F
we do not follow it
C
F
And now they are upon us
Gm
F

Gm
Bb
The dice are loaded, the deck is stacked,
F
the game is rigged so turn it back
C
Now they are upon us,
Gm
the men who have became
Bb
We hold our love, we hold our hope,
F
we do no following
C
But now they are upon us
Bb
The dice are loaded, the deck is stacked,
F
the game is rigged to turn the pack
C
Now they are upon us,
Gm
it's the man who would be king
Bb
We hold our love, we hold our hope,
F
we do no following
C
For each and every one of us
Gm
Is worth more than all their kings
