FUNERAL PYRE BY THE JAM


VERSE


D
Down in amongst the streets tonight, books will burn,

Am
people laugh and cry in their turmoil


Turmoil turns rejoiceful

D
Shed your fears and lose your guilt,

Am
tonight we burn responsibility in the fire


We ll watch the flames grow higher.

CHORUS

G
And as I was standing by the edge,


I could see the faces of those who left

Am
pissing themselves laughing


and the flames grew higher

G
Their mad eyes bulged, their flushed faces said

C F
The weak get crushed and the strong grow stronger.

VERSE


D
We feast on flesh and drink on blood,

Am
live by fear and despise love in our crisis


What with todays high prices.


D
Bring some paper and bring some wood

Am
and bring whats left of your love for the fire


And we ll watch the flames grow higher.

CHORUS

TRY HAMMER ON/OFF YOUR INDEX FINGER ON THE Ds AND Am FOR GOOD SOUNDING VARIATIONS Cheers Billy
