E   Em
Woah!
A Am                                G
Never again will she get the best of me!
                                    F#m
Never again will she take away my freedom.
                                  B
And we won't forget the day we fought
                                      Am
For the right to be a little bit naughty!
                                   G
Never again will The Chokey door slam!
                               F#m
Never again will I be bullied, and
                             B
Never again will I doubt it when
My mummy says I'm a miracle!
C
Never again!
Never again will we live behind bars!
D
Never again now that we know that...

[Chorus:]
  Em
We are revolting children...
  Bm
Living in revolting times...
  G
We sing revolting songs
  A
Using revolting rhymes.
  C
We'll be revolting children,
    G        F#m        Em
'Til our revolting's done,
D            C                   Bm
And we'll have the Trunchbull bolting.
       D  Em
We're revolting!

[Repeat Chorus]

G
We will become a screaming horde!
                      Bm                      Em
Take out your hockey stick, and use it as a sword!
D                          C
Never again will we be ignored!
                                      G
We'll find out where the chalk is stored,
                                 C
And draw rude pictures on the board!
           Bm                  D  Em
It's not insulting; we're revolting!

  Am                G
We can S-P-L how we like!
                                      F#m
If enough of us are wrong, wrong is right!
                    Bm
Every word N-O-R-T-Y...
'Cause we're a little bit naughty!

Am                             G
So we ought to stay inside the line.
                               F#m
But If we disobey at the same time,
                                       Bm
There is nothing that the Trunchbull can do!
                           Bm  C
She can take her hammer and S-H-U.
                                       D
You didn't think you could push us too far,
But there's no going back now, we...

Em           Bm
R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N
(Come on!)
        G
We're S-I-N-G
    A
U-S-I-N-G...
(Yeah...)
      C            G F#m Em
We'll be R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N-G.
(Oh...)
D    C     Bm
It is 2-L-8-4-U.
       D    Em
E-R-E-volting!

[Chorus]

   F#m
We are Revolting children...
       C#m
Living in revolting times...
   A
We sing revolting songs
  B
Using revolting rhymes.
      D
We'll be revolting children,
     A     G#m       F#m
'Til our revolting's done,
E         D                   C#m
And we'll have the Trunchbull vaulting.
        E  F#m
We're revolting!

[Repeat Chorus]
