Biography:
Levellers is a popular English rock band influenced by punk and traditional English music. The band is based in Brighton, England, where they were founded in 1988. There are several stories regarding how they got their name; from the Levellers, a radically democratic faction of Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army; as a reference to "The Level", a flat open space near where members of the band used to live in Brighton; or simply, according to guitarist, Simon Friend, a word they chose from a dictionary.

Bm
Well its headlights, and white lights, and Black Tar Rivers
Em G D Em
They're dragging me around this country as it withers
Bm
The billboards, signposts, standing in the way
Em G D Em
Tell of the state of the nations, that we find today
G D C
And we play and we play and we play
G D C
To every day, every day, every day

Every day
Bm
And in the front rooms of old towns far from the city
Em G D Em
With beaten up guitars and hearts full of pity
Bm
The people gather round singing songs from everywhere
Em G D Em
They're torn from the nation, left without a care
G D C
And we play and we play and we play
G D C
To every day, every day, every day
G
Every day
Em D Em G
And we'll rid the bloody world for a moment in a word

Bm
Warm night, clear sky, European town
Em G D Em
Outside the bars singing their hearts out to a crowd
Bm
With open boots, violin, banjo and a voice
Em G D Em
The exiled buskers are happy with their choice
