Biography:

Sex Pistols are a punk rock band that formed in London, UK in 1976. They are, together with The Clash and The Damned, responsible for initiating the punk movement in the United Kingdom and inspiring many later punk and alternative rock musicians. Although their initial career lasted just two-and-a-half years and produced only four singles plus one studio album, Never Mind the Bollocks Here's the Sex Pistols, they are regarded as one of the most influential acts in the history of modern popular music.

[Intro]
D#5 A#5 C5 A#5 G#5
D#5 A#5 D#5 A#5

[Verse 1]
G#5
People said we couldn't play

They called us foul-mouthed yobs
A#5
But the only notes that really count

Are the ones that come in wads
G#5
They all drowned when the air turned blue

Cause we didn't give a toss
A#5
Filthy lucre, isn't nothing new

But we all get cash from the chaos

[Chorus]
D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now
C5 A#5 G#5
The greatest rock and roll swindle
D#5 A#5 D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now

[Verse 2]
G#5
E.M.I. said you are out of hand

And they gave us the boot
A#5
But they couldn't sack us, just like that

Without giving us the loot
G#5
Thank you kindly A & M

They said we were out of bounds
A#5
But that isn't bad for two weeks work

And 75,000 pounds

[Chorus]
D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now
C5 A#5 G#5
The greatest rock and roll swindle
D#5 A#5 D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now

[Chorus]
D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now
C5 A#5 G#5
The greatest rock and roll swindle
D#5 A#5 D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now

[Verse 3]
G#5
I just want to play with my band

Are you good enough for me
A#5
Hiya boys I'm the chosen one

Can't you fucking see
G#5
I'm a jealous god and I want everything

And I love you with a knife
A#5
I'll take you, if you're ready for me

And I'll give you my life

[Chorus]
D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now
C5 A#5 G#5
The greatest rock and roll swindle
D#5 A#5 D#5 A#5
The time is right to do it now

[Chorus]
D#5 A#5
The time is right for Nickey's Special
C5 A#5 G#5
The greatest rock and roll star
D#5 A#5 D#5
The time is right for me now
A#5
I kill
