Verse 1:


Em                 A
 You don't have to take this crap
Em                     A
 You don't have to sit back and relax
        D       D/C#  Bm        B/D#
You can actually  try changing it
Em                        A
 I know we've always been taught to rely
Em             A
 Upon those in authority
Em                  A
 But you never know until to try
Em          A
 How things just might be
D            D/C#     Bm      B/D#
If we came together so strongly


Chorus 1:


G                    A
 Are you gonna try to make this work
F#                      Bm
 Or spend your days down in the dirt?
         Em
You see things can change
         A                          D
Yes, the walls can come tumbling down

D                     D/C#
Governments crack and systems fall
       D/C      B
'Cause unity is powerful
Em             A                      D
Lights go out, walls come tumbling down

Em                    A
 The competition is a colour TV
Em                             A
 We're on still pause with the video machine
     D         D/C#     Bm      B/D#
That keeps you slaves to the H.P.
Em                  A
 Until the unity is threatened by
Em                  A
 Those who have and who have not
Em                      A
 Those who are with and those who are without
Em                        A
 And dangle jobs like the donkey's carrot
   D      D/C#        Bm       B/D#
Until you don't know where you are


Chorus 2:


G                    A
 Are you gonna get to realise
F#                                Bm
 The class war's real and not mythologised
          Em               A                           D
Just like Jericho, yes the walls can come tumbling down


D                     D/C#
Governments crack and systems fall
       D/C      B
'Cause unity is powerful
Em             A
Lights go out, walls come tumbling


Bridge:

(Down,) oh, will you unite it?
Fmaj7  G   A   B
Ooooh


Verse 3:


Em                A
 Are you gonna be threatened by
Em                  A
 The public enemies number ten?
Em                  A
 Those who play the power game,
Em                          A
 They take the profits, you take the blame,
          D        D/C#       Bm      B/D#
When they tell you there's no rise in pay

Lights go out, walls come tumbling down
