Downmarket

             Am
I stacked my cards against salvation
       Em
Put my life in dirty hands
          Dm
Burned my clothes and jumped the 
border
          E7
Into some broken promised land
           Am
This whole world's a competition
              Em
And we're all fighting to the end
           Dm
With not a soul above suspicion
        E7
Of my position to defend
              Am
These are the spoils of evolution
            Em
This is the wisdom that prevailed
            Dm
This is the history we've chosen
          E7
Tried and tested, broke and failed
        F
But unrelenting of momentum
    Am
The mercenaries marching on
              B
So what if it didn't work in 
practice
            E7
We've got a theory holding strong

            Am
This little piggy went to market
               Em
Screamed the injustice cannot be
           Dm
So give me death or give me freedom
              E7
But don't you put no chains on me
            Am
Go tell the jailer break these 
shackles
         Em
Tell the watchman turn your back
          Dm
Stoke the fires on the money train
    E7
And watch her jump the tracks
      Am
Cut a swathe across the city
        Em
Carving out some great divide
          Dm
Until the only aspiration will be
   E7
To reach the other side
             F
And what you leave can slowly wither
              Am
And those you leave can go to hell
                   B
Those fools should all be dreaming 
bigger
               E7
Throwing their pennies to the well


[Verse]
             Am
Well I say a plague on all your 
houses
       Em
Sell a generation cheap
        Dm
Just to put 9 figures in your pocket
         E7
And say 'what's mine is mine to 
keep'
         Am
Stash it away in some secret island
             Em
Far from the prying eyes and ears
             Dm
And the bony fingers of the taxman
            E7
And all his Marxist scrutineers
                  Am
Come on throw the money up the 
ladder
             Em
And tear the heart out of the town
                  Dm
Do everything you can to block up 
the pipe
        E7
So that nothing trickles down
             F
And when the house is left in ruins
         Am
Swear to God it's structurally sound
             B
Oh yes we're all in this together
             E7
But some are further from the ground
