These Are The Days

Em
STIs are rife in children,
G
Either guns or sex will kill them,
    C
And if they make it to their 20s,
        D
They'll probably have type-2 
diabetes


[Verse 2]
Em
Locals cutting down the trees
G
For free papers no one reads
C
Illegal wars that sow the seeds of
D
So called democracy


[Verse 3]
Em
But if they took Afghanistan
    G
in retaliation of the towers,
C
Tell me Mr Leader Man,
             D
Why are the poppies still in flower?


[Verse 4]
Em
 TV shows that make the music
G
Electric cars that no-one uses
C
Leona Lewis still in my head
   D
At least top of the pops is dead


[Chorus 1]

      Em             G           
Well, these are the days and we hear
C
 it every day
           Em            G        
Then they wonder why we binge 
  C
drink.


[Verse 5]
Em
Ice caps melt away
G
Shores are rising in the bay
C
Shares are falling every day
        D
And the price of beer is how we pay


[Verse 6]
Em
Kids buying skinny jeans
      G
And a best of The Libertines
C
Trading in their drum n bass
         D
For the next big band on the fly 
front page


[Verse 7]
Em
Kids can't communicate
G
Spelling later with a number eight,
C
Let's have chips and lard for 
dinner,
D
Jamie Oliver make me thinner


[Verse 8]
Em
Politics like Jerry Springer,
G
Shout the loudest and you're the 
winner,
C
The church is empty so we're all 
sinners,
D
But I think hell sounds quite 
appealing


[Chorus 2]
      Em             G           
Well, these are the days and we hear
C
 it every day
           Em            G        
Then they wonder why we binge 
  C
drink.


[Verse 9]
Em
And with bodies still fresh in the 
ditches,
G
Blair goes home to spend his riches
C
Now lets welcome in the Tories
D
I wasn't alive but I've heard the 
stories


[Verse 10]
Em
And the cost of living soars and 
soars,
G
Like some filthy joke,
C
And you'd think that they'd stop 
starting wars,
D
Before they tell us where to smoke


[Chorus 3]
      Em             G           
Well, these are the days and we hear
C
 it every day
           Em            G        
Then they wonder why we binge 
  C
drink.
      Em             G           
Well, these are the days and we hear
C
 it every day
           Em            G        
Then they wonder why we binge 
  C
drink.
