[Verse 1]
F#
Great snakes are we moving already
B
Good gravy did you say it 'cause the penny are too for you
We're talking 'bout the bad start
C#
My baby brother has already got a gas mask
F#
Cause it's a good ol' fashion landslide
B
Kill 'em with your hands tied
C#
In the homemade road set sail
Baby read it in the mail no hope now
[Chorus]
F#
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting it's good what you tell 'em
B
Great Britain stand for felons
C#
Great British bombs in the Yemen
[Verse 2]
F# B C#
Why does it seem a fever dream for all the call you made to me
F#
You said I'll feel one day each year a worry
B
We shall remember the death
C#
And we'll remember the dead so they know that we're sorry but then carry on
[Chorus]
F#
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting it's good what you tell 'em
B
Great Britain stand for felons
C#
Great British bombs in the Yemen
F#
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting it's good what you tell 'em
B
Great Britain stand for felons
C#
Great British bombs in the Yemen
[Verse 3]
F#
How could it be the money is the fault that matters to me
You say you're hungry but you won't eat the caraway seed
B
Doesn't matter in the wreckage what should you say
C#
Well I found myself a little peckish last tuesday
F#
This is what you signed up for no questions
B
Reckon we could offer peace damn the weapons conventions
C#
Well it's on the table but it's no good
Can't you hear All our worries for fear carry on
[Chorus]
F#
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting it's good what you tell 'em
B
Great Britain stand for felons
C#
Great British bombs in the Yemen
F#
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting it's good what you tell 'em
B
Great Britain stand for felons
C#
Great British bombs in the Yemen
[Bridge]
F#
It's a good old fashion landslide
B
Kill 'em with your hands tied
C#
In the homemade road set sail
Baby read it in the mail no hope now
F#
And it's a total fucking whitewash
B
The people that we might squash
C#
And the front home soil set sail
F#
For whoever the fuck got oil this time
And if it's not a fucking war crime
B
It's a total waste of your time and getting so much worse
C#
Get real kid your country's been at war since birth now
F# B
And if it's not a fucking outrage what's it all about then
Now it's one on one
C#
Great Britain's gonna tell you where it all went wrong and then carry on
[Chorus]
F#
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting it's good what you tell 'em
B
Great Britain stand for felons
C#
Great British bombs in the Yemen
F#
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting it's good what you tell 'em
B
Great Britain stand for felons
C#
Great British bombs in the Yemen
