The Strawbs "New World"

This is my first time typing up a transcription,

 if any errors are present, please inform me


Em, Emadd9, Em, Bm, Em, B7

(Em) There's blood in the dust (Bm) where the citys heart(C) beats

(Bm) The children play games that they take from the(C) streets

(Em) How can you teach (Bm) when you've so much to(C) learn
                                       (Chorus)
(G)   May you turn, (D) may you turn (Bm) may you turn, (C) may you turn

(G)   may you turn,  (C) may you turn (Bm) in your grave (C) New World

Em, Emb5, CM7, Em, Bm, Em, B7

There's hate in your eyes, I've seen it before

Planning destruction behind the locked door

Were you the coward who fired the last shot
		      (Chorus)
May you rot (6X) in your grave, New World

****Instrumental Break**** (NOTE: I have tried to tab this out for guitar, It's mainly a mellotron I 
but

this transcription sounds good enough)

  Em Bm Em B7

  There's death in the air, lights growing dim

 And those who survive sing a desperate him

  If god grants you one final request

                                  (Chorus)

May you rest (6X), in your grave, New World
