Patrik Fitzgerald - Work. Rest. Play. Reggae.

Bar chords, C at 8th fret.
Very fast, very repetitive strumming, repeating contantly, angry bee
during the verse:
C C B A# G

During the chorus:
C C Cb G
G A# C


[Verse]
C C B A# C C B A#
The black and white racial disharmony
C C B A# C C B A#
It's just a cover story.
C C B A# C C B A#
Concocted to hide the fact
C C B A# C C B A#
that working class people ar still being kicked all over the place


[Verse]
C C B A# C C B A#
WORK. It's nothing but a diversion.
C C B A# C C B A#
Something you are supposed to do.
C C B A# C C B A#
Pulling to the rules made up by who,
C C B A# C C B A#
a long long time ago.
C C B A# C C B A#
Slow death, tailored to suit you.

C C B A# C C B A#

[Chorus]
C C B A# G
And it's all been designed to say
G A# C
Let's keep another of the fuckers down.

C C B A# C C B A#

[Verse]
C C B A# C C B A#
REST. that's sleeping. you can have plenty of.
C C B A# C C B A#
Because while you are asleep you are peaceful
C C B A# C C B A#
and don't give the authorities any trouble.
C C B A# C C B A#
12 hours a night, 7 days a week, no problem.

C C B A# C C B A#

[Chorus]
C C B A# G
And it's all been designed to say
G A# C
Let's keep another of the fuckers down.

C C B A# C C B A#

[Verse]
C C B A# C C B A#
PLAY. What play?
C C B A# C C B A#
I can't afford the boat show or a yacht.
C C B A# C C B A#
The cinemas are gone now, the few that we had.
C C B A# C C B A#
So tell me: what we got left?
C C B A# C C B A#
A part from REGGAE! and dancin'.

C C B A# C C B A#

[Chorus]
C C Cb D G
And it's all been designed to say
G A# C
Let's keep another of the fuckers down.

C C Cb D G
And it's all been designed to say
G A# C
Let's keep another of the fuckers down.

C C Cb D G
And it's all been designed to say
G A# C
Let's keep another of the fuckers in their place.

N.C.
Or it might just be too late.
