G D They called our little town Beruit, we grew up there without much loot
A C D G Street kids with a attitude, we never had fuck all
G D On the streets we held our own, we watched the gavers raid another home
A C D G Times gone by now, we've all grown with no regrets at all [Chorus]
C D G Oh those were the days, we stood real proud
C D Those were the days,
G D C D the revival of the Skinhead
G D C D We ruled the streets, stood alone
G D C D The revival of the Skinhead,
C D Those were the days
G E C D [G] We stood as one, singing this is my... England!

G D Alcoholics and single mums, wanna' be gangsters on the run
A C D G Liberal hippies and junkie scum, down on our estate
G D Teenage birds getting up the duff, posh birds looking for a bit of rough
A C D G Have a go Soulboys think they're tough and not a lot has changed [Chorus]
C D G Oh those were the days, we stood real proud
C D Those were the days,
G D C D the revival of the Skinhead
G D C D We ruled the streets, stood alone
G D C D The revival of the Skinhead,
C D Those were the days

G D Greasy spoons and early doors, getting nicked for nicking cars
A C D G Snakebites on the promenade, graffiti on the walls
G D Broken windows, littered streets, bunking trains and arcade cheats
A C D G Leaves a taste so bittersweet, Britannia rules! [Chorus]
C D G Oh those were the days, we stood real proud
C D Those were the days,
G D C D the revival of the Skinhead
G D C D We ruled the streets, stood alone
G D C D The revival of the Skinhead,
C D Those were the days
G E C D G We stood as one, singing this is my... England!
