Verse
(same strumming as intro)
Em
This England made me
A
Between the war and a rockets flying
F#m
You found the crib it saves me
B
And teach me wrong and right
Em
Then the world was talking
A
But never got its chance to say
F#m
When there's too much talking
B
Nobody hears a word you say
Chorus
Strumming: v v ^ v^v^v
Em
And you won't see
A
And baby now I won't hear
F#m
These blind communications
B
Only last throughout the year
Em
And half of what we're saying
A
Is halfway near the truth
F#m
And blind communications
B
For a million hearts and fools
Verse
Em
I am A witness
A
To a land of a million fools
F#m
All placing bets on life
B
And hate the ones who lose
Em
And all who�re lonely
A
And never get the chance to say
F#m
That their one and only
B
Would be the chance to even play
Chorus
Solo (same as chorus)
Verse
Em
Hello Monday
A
The weekend's just a blur
F#m
I've been burning bridges
B
And now I'm begging at your door
Em
So I'll keep on working
A
'Cause it's a chance for me to pay
F#m
But too much talking
B
When you believed the words I say
Chorus (repeat to end)
