Verso 1:
The vans they come in convoys now, 
stealing through the dawn
Silent in the countryside in the 
hills up to the north
There's road blocks on the Meden 
bridge
There's click, click clicking on the
 phone
They're sealing off our villages, 
sealing off our homes

(Solo de baixo)

Her father crossed the battle lines 
in the first months of the war
She frowns down at the soup kitchen 
- she doesn't have a father anymore
It's cold in the early mornings, 
standing with your mates
Staring at the thick blue line armed
 and ready at the gates

Refrão:
E5                      A5 
This ain't some tin-pot story 
                           B5
arriving from a distant shore
        A5         B5      
But our own sweet, green and 
                   E5
pleasant land in 1984

Verso 2:
The servants of our great nation
Have lied in the name of us all
While the officers of peace and 
order
Are busy breaking every law
There's hundreds on trumped-up 
charges
Hundreds on the streets
The future of our villages
Sown with bitter seeds

E5                   A5          
And hatred starts to rumble where
                B5
 there was no hate before
      A5                           
In our own sweet green and pleasant
          E5
 land in 1984

E5               G5
Nobody wanted to see the blood
       A5                          
As the blue lights flash through in
     G5
 the night
             A5           G5
But all the words fell on deaf ears
            A5                G5
And now the blind frustration bites
    E5            G5        A5   
Two nations under one crown 
            G5
divided more and more

    A5                      
But our own sweet, green and 
 G5
pleasant land
    A5                   G5
Our own sweet, green and pleasant 
land
    A5                   G5
Our own sweet, green and pleasant 
land
    A5         G5        Gb5      
Our own sweet, green and pleasant 
F5     E5
land
