Hi all, all the chords should be played as Bar chords to get the right sound

By the way I'm only 13 so... :)




Verse 1:
--------
Up rolled the riot van
   Fm                             E  D7
And sparked excitement in the boys
   Fm                             E  D7
But the policemen look annoyed
  Fm                             E  D7
Perhaps these are ones they should avoid
Fm                             E  D7

Chorus 1
-------
A                          E                         D              Bm Cm D
They got a chase last night from men with truncheon’s dressed in hats
A                             E                                  D
They didn’t do that much wrong, still ran away though for the laugh
                   Bm  Cm  D
just for the laugh


Verse 2:
--------
Please just stop talking
   Fm                             E  D7
Because they won’t find us if you do
   Fm                             E  D7
Oh those silly boys in blue
  Fm                             E  D7
Well they won’t catch me and you
Fm                             E  D7


Chorus 2:
---------
A                          E                         D        Bm Cm D
Have you been drinking son, you don’t look old enough to me
A                             E                                 D
I’m sorry officer is there a certain age you’re supposed to be?
                Bm  Cm  D
nobody told me


Verse 3:
--------
Up rolled the riot van
   Fm                             E  D7
And these lads just wind the coppers up
   Fm                             E  D7
Ask why they don’t catch proper crooks
  Fm                             E  D7
Get their address and their name’s took
Fm                             E  D7
But they couldn’t care less

Verse 4
-------
He got thrown in the riot van
   Fm                             E  D7
And all the coppers kicked him in
   Fm                             E  D7
And there was no way he could win
  Fm                             E  D7
Just had to take it on the chin
Fm                             E  D7
