The Sound Of Revolt
The King Blues
REM857
Use barre chords on the verse/intro
basic ska strumming
Intro: Em-A x2
Em A
In my back pocket there's a catapult
Em A
To smash windows with the sound of revolt,
Em A
I may not be Guy Fawkes
Em A
But I'll always be a thorn in your paws.
G C D G
This anger is focused, so you'd better listen up.
C D G
When there's a scarf over my face and my hoody's up,
C D G
I'm out to build the world with a brick in my hand.
C D
I'm just a little man, but this is where I take my stand.
G C D
Woah. Woah. This is where I take my stand.
G C D
Woah. Woah. This is where I take my stand.
Em-A x2
I'm writing columns and I'm singing songs,
I'm marching every time they drop them bombs;
Because I love the sound of breaking glass, ooh,
I'll always be a pain in your ass
This anger is focused, so you'd better listen up.
When there's a scarf over my face and my hoody's up,
I'm out to change the world with a brick in my hand.
I'm just a little man, but this is where I take my stand.
Woah. Woah. This is where I take my stand.
Woah. Woah. This is where I take my stand.
Woah. Woah. This is where I take my stand.
Woah. Woah. This is where I take my stand.
