The First To Die

         Bm                        
We're way behind we're living on 
        A
the edge of time
             G            A  
We must get rich becoming poor 
            Bm
became a crime
      Bm                           
Many promises where made but in the
     A
 end
             G              A     
The first to die has always been 
         Bm
the working man


         Bm                      
They tell our kids in school it's 
                     A
like that don't ask why
             G            A       
We gotta work until we're old 
       Bm
enough to die
           Bm                      
The more we learn, the more we 
               A
still don't understand
             G              A     
The first to die has always been 
         Bm
the working man

[Chorus]
D                         A
We're the first to fight, we're the 
first to die
          E                    
And the last to find the bloody 
        Bm
reason why

D                         A
Again and again since I don't know 
when
          G            A          
The first to die has always been

 [Strophe]
         Bm                        
To keep your job you have to do the
          A
 best you can
          G            A          
Building houses for unhandy 
    Bm
business men
          Bm                       
And when you're all used up nobody 
        A
gives a damn
             G              A     
The first to die has always been 
           Bm
the working man


[Chorus]
D                         A
We're the first to fight, we're the 
first to die
          E                    
And the last to find the bloody 
        Bm
reason why
D                         A
Again and again since I don't know 
when
