Intro: E
E
listen to the fife and snare,
marching through the square
C#m
Stencil flags of insurrection,
B
dancin' through the air
E
Read the rants of a Thomas Paine
A E
of modern day
A E
I have felt a spirit,
B E
that has not yet gone away
E
Boycott me and boycott this
B E
and mute your children's mouths
A
When they sing along
E
to this very song
A B
Spread word all around
A E
Hey, FOP, boycott me
B C#m
for I am standing up
A E
I'd rather taste a rebel's glory
B E
than drink blood from your cup'
A E
I'd rather taste a rebel's glory
B
than drink blood from your cup
Breakdown:

E
Read the rants of those in jail
and those who rode the rails
C#m
Then lay down on the roads we paved
B
eat the crumbs we used for trails
E
And discredit all the rogues,
A E
liberty's cracked within the bells
A E
The demon's in your heavens
B E
and the angels in your hells
E
Boycott me and boycott this
B E
and mute your children's mouths
A
When they sing along
E
to this very song
A B
Spread word all around

E
The scorned few of today
are the heroes of tomorrow
C#m
They'll be a holiday,
B
times of regret and sorrow
E
and when they're pressed on stamps
A E
we'll hope they're not forgotten
A E
So let's go down in history,
B E
blacklisted and boycotten
