Strum
D-DU-UDU
 The party  that became so powerful  by sinkin'  foreign boat
He's  dreaming up new promises  cause promises  win vote
 In resoluting  conference,  the headman's  expertise
 The majority  by their silence  should pay  for days like these
 The right  to build communities,  is back  behind closed doors
Between  governements and people  stands the right  arm of the law
 And shame  upon the patriot  when the mark  of the bulldog breath
 He's a  familly without a home,  in a pentionnary  need.
 Those  whose life is ruled by dogma,  are waitin'  for a sign
The  better dead than red  brigade, are listenin'  on the line
 And the liberal  of the small "L"  cries in front  of the TV
 And another  demonstration  passes  on to history
 Peace,  bread, work and freedom
 Is the best  we can achieve
 Wairing  badges is not  enough
In  days like these

[G] [Em] [G] [Em]

The pa[G]rty that became so p[Em]owerful by si[Am]nkin' foreign bo[C]at
[G]He's dreaming up new pro[Em]mises cause pro[Am]mises win vo[A7]te
In res[D]oluting confe[Em]rence, the head[C]man's expe[Am]rtise
The majo[Em]rity by their sil[C]ence should p[D]ay for days like these

The ri[G]ght to build comm[Em]unities, is ba[Am]ck behind closed do[C]ors
[G]Between governements and [Em]people stands the ri[Am]ght arm of the l[A7]aw
And sh[D]ame upon the pat[Em]riot when the m[C]ark of the bulldog bre[Am]ath
He's a[Em] familly without a h[C]ome, in a pe[D]ntionnary need.

Th[G]ose whose life is ruled by do[Em]gma, are wa[Am]itin' for a si[C]gn
[G]The better dead than red[Em] brigade, are list[Am]enin' on the l[A7]ine
And the [D]liberal of the small "[Em]L" cries in fr[C]ont of the TV[Am]
And anoth[Em]er demonstrati[C]on pas[D]ses on to history [G]

[G]  [Em]  [Am]  [C]  [G]  [Em]  [Am]  [A7]

Pe[D]ace, bread, work and fr[Em]eedom
Is the be[C]st we can achi[Am]eve
Wai[Em]ring badges is n[C]ot enough
[D]In days like these[G]
