Displacement Song Chords by Liz Green

_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _
Heard the rumour was spreading through town
They were [Dm] coming in numbers to tear this place down to [Bb] the ground _
And _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ there they come in their twos and their threes
With their guns to the front so you _ [A] can't fail [Bb] to see _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] Can't _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ stay now, you've [Dm] got to carry all you can take _
_ For [Bb] they're on, they're on, they're on, they're on the [D] art tape
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
Don't look to me, you've [Dm] got to carry _ _ your own weight _
So _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
[D] _ _ we're standing in line with our pots [A] and our pans
[D] In the sink if you can and the children [A] in your one [Bb] free hand
_ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[A] _ _ [D] And many [A] miles later [D] I've worn out my shoes over heels
[A] Rough listed [D] and hardened [A] and bruised from [Bb] the war _
_ _ _ _ _ _
You'd [Em] better [D] get home _
_ _ _ Can't _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ stay now, you've [Dm] got to carry _ all you can take
_ [A] For [Bb] they're on, they're on, they're on, they're on the [D] art tape
_ [A] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
Don't look to me, you've [Dm] got to carry _ your own weight _
_ For [Bb] they're on, they're on, they're on, they're on their [D] way _
[A] And _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ I don't mind [A] the fighting but [D] all we got are [A] the rocks and [D] the sticks and [A] the stones
[D] But they don't break the bones when [Bb] they hit _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] So quieten your [A] voices [D] and stamp out your fires
We'll be sleeping [A] by day and [D] we'll travel [A] on [Bb] at night
_ _ _ _ _
[Gm] You've got the [D] good light _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ Can't stay now, you've [F] got [Dm] to carry all you can take
_ For [Bb] they're on, they're on, they're on, they're on the [Dm] art tape
_ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
Don't look to me, you've [Dm] got to carry _ your own weight _
_ For [Bb] they're on, they're on, they're on, they're on their [Dm] _ way
_ _ Don't _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ look to me, you've got [D] to carry _ [Dm] your own weight
_ For [Bb] they're on, they're on, they're on, they're on their [Dm] way
[G] _ _ _ [A] _ [D] _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
