[G]Gold, [D]let it unfold

[G]Roaring crowds in [D]Manchester will [A]manage to be told
 
Pre-Chorus:
Oh, [Em]and your [Bm]your king, the boy you [D]loved in spring

[Gb]The common goal[Bm]goal, and waiting for [D]the kids to go [A]

But [G]we've been [D]held back for after-school [A]meetings

Verse 2:
[G] Holy smokes[D]smokes
You kids [A]and your jokes[Em]jokes [Bm]
Asking [G]where we got our j[D]jeans
and where the [A]hell we found our [Bm]coats
'Cause dirty [G]streets these days are
[D]graced by Nikes of [A]black and gre[Em]green [Bm]
And headstrong [G]boys in chin[D]chinos
barely grasp [A]what that could mean
 
Pre-Chorus:
And [Em]they [Bm]lie, the men that [D]wrung us dry
The [A]boys who [E]poked your eye
[Gb]The common fo[Bm]fool, the walk to sc[D]school for you and I [A]
 
Chorus:
But [G]we've been [D]held back for after-school [A]meetings
They've [Em]got it [Bm]in for [G]me
For [D]all it's worth
The [A]key to life on [Bm]Earth
 
The [G]thing is, these [D]out-of-touch scrounging [A]rich kids
Are [Em]living [Bm]here for [G]free
On [D]my home turf
The [A]key to life on [Bm]Earth

Verse 4:
[G]Call in to [D]wake you up in the [A]morning
[Em]Iron your [Bm]suit and [G]tie [D]forever until you [A]die
Join [G]forces, like [D]carousels and
their [A]horses [Em]forever [Bm]spinning [G]'round
And [D]never coming down [A] [Bm]
