We all watched you on our TV
Right honorable gentlemen [E] apparently
[A] Different [E] voices with only [A] one aim
To win my vote and to win the game
Now some have died to pave the way
So we can vote come polling [E] day
X marks the spot that gives us our voice
But how do we vote when there isn't a choice?
If [B] you thought that we would [A] do nothing you've misunderstood
For [A] we are the sons and daughters of Robin
[E]
[A] You see I remember
Exclusion zones
At Solstice time around [E] stone
And the [A] poll tax riots of Trafalgar Square
The rich they got richer [E] the poor were [A] stripped bare
Building new roads with no thought for the land
And the blood of the bean field is still [E] on your hands
[D] Now drilling off Shetland [A] will do you just fine
And you wanted to sell off our forests like you closed down mines
If you [Bm] thought that we would [D] do nothing you've misunderstood
[A]
[Bm] For we are the [A] sons and daughters of Robin
[E]
[E] [A] [Bm] There's nothing to see there's nothing to see [D] there's nothing to see here
[Bm] There's nothing to see won't you just look away?
[D] There's nothing to [E] see
[A] Oh England's green and pleasant land
Is not there to put cash in your [E] hand
I see [E] your symbol is the [A] English oak tree
Is [A] that your idea of irony?
Now millions of [D] eyes have turned [A] upon you
And each one is watching what you [E] will do
And all are ready to [A] spoil your game
For the blood of an outlaw it flows in our veins
[Bm] If you thought that we would do nothing you've [A] misunderstood
[Bm] For we are the sons [A] and daughters of Robin
