Tom: A5
(The Clash) 
A5                D5                    A5
The towers of London, these crumbling rocks  
         D5                       F#5
Reality estates that the hero's got  
                 B5                       G5
And every hour's marked by the chime of a clock  
    A5                         A5
And whatcha gonna do when the darkness surrounds?  
        A5                            D5
You can piss in the lifts which have broken down  
        F#5                       A5          D5
You can watch from the debris the last bedroom light  
        F#5               D5   D5  A5   D5 F#5 D5
We're invisible here just past midnight  
  
The wives hate their husbands and their husbands don't care  

Their children daub slogans to prove they lived there  

A giant pipe organ up in the air  

You can't live in a home which should not have been built  

By the bourgeoise clerks who bear no guilt  

When the wind hits this building this building it tilts  

One day it will surely fall to the ground...  
  
Fear is just another commodity here  

They sell us peeping holes to peek when we hear  

A bang on the door resoundingly clear  

Who would really want to move in here?  

The children play faraway, the corridors are bare  

This room is a cage its like captivity  
                                  A5  D5
How can anyone exist in such misery?  
D5              A5 D5           A5  D5 B5 G5
It has been said not only here  
  

A5            D5       
"Allianza dollars are spent   
A5                     D5
To raise the towering buildings  
A5                   D5
For the weary bones of the workers  
B5                G5      A5
To go back in the morning  

To be strong in the morning"
