Intro - G, A, D, B x2:

Em           A
This England made me,
          D                B
Between a war and a rocket span,
Em                     A
You've found a crib it saves me,
    Dmaj7               B
And teach me wrong and right,
Em                A
And the world was talking,
      D                  B
Never got it's chance to say,
Em                    A
When there's too much talking,
       Dmaj7            B
Nobody hears a word you say

Em        A
You won't see,
            D       B
So baby now I won't hear,
     Em           A
It's blind communications,

     D                    B
Only lasts throughout the year,
    Em                 A
And half of what we're saying,
   D               B
Is half-way to the truth,
     Em           A
It's blind communications,
      D                 B
For a million heart and fools


Em, A, D, B x2


Em     A
I am a witness,
     D                 B
To a land of a million fools,
Em          A
All placing bets on life,
    Dmaj7             B
And hate the ones you lose,
Em             A
And all who're lonely,
      D                 B
Never get the chance to say,
Em                    A
The fact that one and only,
            Dmaj7          B
Will be the chance to even play


Em        A
You won't see,
            D       B
So baby now I won't hear,
     Em           A
It's blind communications,
     D                    B
Only lasts throughout the year,
    Em                 A
And half of what we're saying,
   D               B
Is half-way to the truth,
     Em           A
It's blind communications,
      D                 B
For a million heart and fools


Em    A
Hello monday,
    D                B
The weekend's just a blur,
Em                A
I've been burning bridges,
            Dmaj7           B
and now I'm begging at your door,
Em         A
So keep on working,
           D                B
Cos it's a chance for me to play,
Em                   A
Cos there's too much talking,
           Dmaj7             B
When you believe the words I say
