C5      G5      A5
But for the cum in your hair,
F5            A5
The cocaine on your teeth
C5      G5      A5
You'd be just like the girls
F5            A5
That I kissed on the heath
C5      G5      A5
Your mother left and you're all alone
F5      G5      C5
And the world is at your feet
G5      F5      A5      C5
You smell like ash, mildew and hash
F5      G5      A5
Can barely even speak


F5            G5            A5            F5
And it's so sad that you're so sad and you're so bad for me
F5            G5            A5            F5
I followed your perfume as you ran down the street
F5            G5            A5            F5
I caught you and held you and pushed back your fringe and swore undying loyalty
F5            G5
We'll make a new art for the people,
A5            F5
A new art for the people
F5            G5
A new art for the people
A5
you and me.


C5      G5      A5
I followed you home
F5            A5
Knocked at your door
C5      G5      A5
Offered myself in the kitchen
F5            A5
Passed out on the floor
C5      G5      A5
And when you shout, I get terrified
F5      G5      C5
And then I love you more
G5      F5      A5      C5
You sound middle class, but I'll let it pass,
F5      G5      A5
I don't understand you at all


F5            G5            A5            F5
And it's so sad that you're so sad and you're so bad for me
F5            G5            A5            F5
I swallowed my pride with a pill and decided to give you back your key
F5            G5            A5            F5
You caught me and held me and I took your hand and swore undying loyalty
F5            G5
We'll make a new art for the people,
A5            F5
A new art for the people
F5            G5
A new art for the people
A5
you and me.


C5      G5      A5
Under the covers forever
F5            A5
Everything well within reach
C5      G5      A5
A small price to pay for our freedom
F5            A5
And for our celebrity
C5      G5      A5
Such ornaments and gorgeous things
F5      G5      C5
Like string lights at the beach
G5      F5      A5      C5
Intensive care and conditioned air
F5      G5      A5
And our faces on TV


F5            G5            A5            F5
And it's so sad but they're so glad that you're so bad for me
F5            G5            A5            F5
The dark days ahead and the blood on the bed and the cover of the NME
F5            G5            A5            F5
They gave us a cheque and took us by our necks and swore undying loyalty
F5            G5
We'll make a new art for the people,
A5            F5
A new art for the people
F5            G5
A new art for the people
A5
you and me.
