Capo 2

(F) ( ) (C)

(C) (F) (C) (G)

(F) (Ami ) (G)

Another old person dies,
not enough money to keep themselves alive
The pension couldn´t keep away the winter cold,
when the heating went off and the night took hold

(F) (Ami ) (G)

(C) (F) (C) (G)

Against the coming of death there´s no innoculation,
waiting in vain for an operation
on the NHS understaffed and poor,
one more patient can be wheeled out the door

(F) (Ami ) (G)

(Ami) In this country of blood and (C) steel
(Ami) Where capitol makes us crawl and (F) kneel
(G) To a pain we were never ever taught to (C) feel

(C) (F) (C) (G) /3x
(F) (Ami ) (G)

Another single mother, poor and alone,
where a rate capped council cant afford her a home
tea and tranquilizers before bed,
another victim the state has bled.

One more pint at the boozer for the men
before they stagger home again.
Another teenage suicide who couldn´t cope,
choked on the end of the bosses rope.

(F) (Ami ) (G)

(Ami) In this country of blood and (C) steel
(Ami) Where capitol makes us crawl and (F) kneel
(G) To a pain we were never ever taught to (C) feel

(C) (F) (C) (G) /3x
(F) (Ami ) (G)

More and more soldiers to keep the peace,
more and more weapons for the police,
more and more repression, more and more fear
to give more control to those who never hear.

But this suffering and alienation has to stop,
and it´s architects must expect the chop,
they want a land of steel and stone,
where no one speaks and love´s no longer known

(Ami) In this country of blood and (C) steel
(Ami) Where capitol makes us crawl and (F) kneel
(G) To a pain we were never ever taught to (C) feel
