Can you tell me where my country lies?
Said the uniform to his true love's eyes.
[C#m] It lies [G#m] with me, cried the Queen of Maybe, For [C#m] her merchandise [F#m] he [D#] traded in [C#m] his prize.
[G#m]
[A] Paper [B] late, cried a voice in [E] the crowd.
Old man dies, [B] the note he left,
Whose sign old Father [C#m] tems, it seems [B] he's drowned, [C#m] [A] Selling England [B]
[C#m] by the pound.
[G#m] [A] [C#m]
[G#m] Citizens of hope and [A] glory, time [B] goes by, It's the [E] time of your life, easy now,
Sit you down, chewing through [B] your wimpy [C#m] dreams, They eat [B] without a sound,
[C#m] [A]
Digesting [B] England by [C#m] the pound.
[G#m] [A]
[C#m] [G#m] [A] [C#m] [G#m]
[A] [C#m] Young man [G#m] says you are what [A] you eat, [C#m] well,
[G#m] [A] [C#] [C#m] Old man [G#m] says you are [A] what you [C#m] wear, well, Well, [G#m] [A] [C#m] you know [G#m] what you are, [A] you don't [C#m] give a damn.
[G#m] [A]
[C#m] Burst [G#m] in your [A] belt, that [B] is your homemade chef, The captain [E] leads this dance rion,
[F#] Through [C#] the night, [F#] join the dance, [C#] Follow [F#] on, [D#m] till the grey [C#] of [D#m] sunset's in the morn,
[C#] [D#m] Follow on, till [B] the gold is cold, [Em] Dancing out with the morning light,
[F#m] [D] Eyes to the [E] green shields, [F#] dance and shout.

The deck [G#m] is uneven [C#m] right from the start, [G#m] [C#m]
[G#m] Their [B] hands are playing the part,
