Sting - What Have We Got? (Live At The Public Theater) chords
Start Jamming...
[D] God people give ear to me story, pay attention and none of you will live.
For I brought you five lives and they're done, and ten [C] don't top it, just [D] a shame.
Was in this war a petition, it's the place we was all born and [Am] bred.
And [D] as they finalize their mission, another [C] more gallantly [D]
lads.
[G]
[Am] [G]
[A] Oh what have we got, but the buzzer [E] in the morning.
[A] And what have we got, but the laying of the keel.
What have we got, but the cranes above us [E] soaring.
Nothing but [F#m] motion and the clamor and [D] the welding [E] of the steel.
[A] Oh what have we got, but [Bm] the mist upon the river.
[A] And what have we got, but that noise inside the holes.
What have we got, at the arse end of the [E] weather.
[F#m] Where we work in horizontal [D] rain and [E] shiver in the [A] poles.
[B] Oh what have we got, what have we got,
[F#] [G#m] we got naught.
[E] [F#]
[B] Hey what have we got, what have we got, we got naught.
[E] We've [F#] got [B] no else!
[A] What have we got?
But the singing in the cables, and what have we got?
But [D] the ringing [A] in your ears!
What have we got?
But the [D] talent of [E] the fables and [F#m] the ghosts of all [C#m] the ships that [D] we've been [E] building [A] through these years!
[B] What have we got?
We've got [E] no
[F#] We've got [B] no else!
What have we got?
[G#m] We've got [E] no
We've got [B] no else!
[G#] You're standing for your tea break, [G#m] you're up to [G#] here in shite, you're dying for a cigarette, [G#m] you're [G#] desperate for a light,
and then [B] the gaffer pulls [C#] along with his job shit and he reads, ah, tea break's [F#] over gentlemen, now get back on your heads!
[B] Hey, what does it say in the papers?
What does it [E] say on the news?
[B] Oh, they said we've all gone bloody daft!
Oh, well, what have we got to lose?
What would I get for murder?
[E] What would I get for life?
[B] What would I get for a capital crime?
What luck, tell me wife!
What do you get for your politics?
[E] What do you get for your votes?
[B] What have you got at the end of the day?
[C#m] A fabric [B] bloody book!
[F#m] You're gonna die of something, [B] it's written in your face!
[F#m] You might as well die next Tuesday [B] and who'll be tasing your [F#m] lids?
[B] Come on!
[F#m]
[G] What have you got?
All you've got's been nibbled
What have you got?
Got a strand in your neck
What have you got?
What you laid out on a table
And a snapping of a cable
[Em] When the rigging hits the [D] deck
[G] What have you got?
Got the loyalty of brothers
What have you got?
Got the punching of the clock
What have you got?
You're reactionary clowns
Why you'll never knock us down
Cause we're the [D] union [E] of the drum!
[A] What have you got?
What have we got?
We've got [D] nowt!
[E] We've got [A] nowt out!
What have you got?
What have we got?
[E]
[A] We've got nowt!
We've [E] got [A] nowt out!
[B] What have we got?
[F#] What have we got?
[G#m] We got [E] nowt!
We've [B] got nowt out!
What have you got?
What have we [F#] got?
