BURNING SKY- The Jam
D Bm A D Bm A D Bm A D Bm A
D Bm G A
How are things in your little world, I hope they're going well and you
are too
D Bm G A
Do you still see the same old crowd, the ones who used to meet every
Friday?
D Bm
I'm really sorry that I can't be there
G A
But work comes first I'm sure you'll understand
D Bm
Things are really taking off for me
G A Bm
Business is thriving and I'm showing a profit and
Bm A D Bm A D
And in any case, it wouldn't be the same
Bm D Bm D
Cause we've all grown up and we've got our own lives
Bm D Bm D
And the values that we had once upon a time
Bm A
Seem stupid now 'cause the rent must be paid
Bm A Bm A D
And some bonds severed and others made
Bm A D Bm A D
Dit dit dit dit dit do n do dit dit dit dit dit do n do
D Bm A D Bm A D Bm A D Bm A
D Bm G A
Now I don't want you to get me wrong, ideals are fine when you are young
D Bm G A
Bm
And I must admit we had a laugh, but that's all it was and ever will be cos
Bm A D Bm A D
Cos the burning sky keeps a burning bright
Bm D Bm D
And as long as it does, and it always will
Bm D Bm D
There's no time for dreams when commerce calls
Bm A
And the taxman's shouting 'cause he wants his dough
Bm A Bm A D
And the wheels of finance won't begin to slow
Bm A D Bm A D
Dit dit dit dit dit do n do dit dit dit dit dit do n do
Bm A D Bm A D Bm A D
Bm A D
Dit dit dit dit di do dit dit dit di do, dit dit dit dit di do dit dit
dit di do
Bm A
And it's only us realists who are gonna come through
Bm A
Cause there's only one power higher than that of truth
Bm A D Bm A D D Bm A D Bm A D Bm A
D Bm A
And that's the burning sky, it's the burning sky
Oh and by the way I must tell you, before I sign off I've got a meeting
next week
With the head of a big corporate
I can't disclose who but I'm sure you all know him and
And the burning sky keeps a burning bright
And it won't turn off til it's had enough
It's the greedy bastard who won't give up
And you're just a dreamer if you don't realise
And the sooner you do will be the better for you
And then we'll all be happy and we'll all be wise
And we'll all bow down to the burning sky
Dit dit dit dit dit do n do, dit dit dit dit do n do
Dit dit dit dit di do dit dit dit di do, dit dit dit dit di do dit dit
dit di do
Then we'll all be happy and we'll all be wise
And together we will live beneath the burning sky
