B6 C#
Pack up what you own,
B6 C#
and you dial up who you can phone,
Ebm C#
and you save up all your pennies,
Ebm C#
and we hope but, oh -- is there any --
Ebm C# E6
and we wonder, oh, how can he put you out tonight?
B7 C#7
Go back in your mind,
B7 C#7
twenty years in time,
Ebm C#
and we’ll go a-walking through your garden;
Ebm C#
see the trees you planted in your yard then.
Ebm C#
All your work, it didn’t seem so hard then,
E
but it’s hard tonight.
B7 C#7
Five years further on,
B7 C#7
from the stage it looked like we’d won,
Ebm C#
but how many of those who heard you play
Ebm C#
have gone their insouciant ways?
Ebm C#
And the streets run bloody to this day,
E6
and to your house tonight.
Ebm C#
And we, still so touched,
Ebm C#
can we offer you that much
Ebm C#
more than those who you fought
Ebm C#
and who left you with nought,
E6 Ebm
and who lied to you?
E6 Ebm
They lied to you
E6 Ebm
but this you always knew.
B6 C#
So pack up your bulls and smalls,
B6 C#
and we’ll tack up your painting on our walls,
Ebm C#
and we’ll write down all our songs then,
Ebm C#
and we’ll right up all our wrongs then,
Ebm C#
and we’ll tear up the streets a million strong then,
E6
in your name tonight.
