[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
F#m E F#m E Looking for a friend, looking everywhere F#m E F#m E Walked along the boulevard, the boulevard of friends F#m E All those mild mannered friends I've got F#m E They're careless and they fall down F#m E All over the place, all over town F#m E I don't want them talking to me
[Chorus 1]
A Asus2 Asus4 A 'Cause I'm leaving it, leaving it, leaving it up to you A Asus2 Asus4 A Have to leave it, leave it, leave it up to you
[Instrumental]
F#m E
F#m E
[Verse 2]
F#m E All the buildings are breaking down F#m E Like the whispering in your heart F#m E And it's sordid how life goes on F#m E When I could take you apart F#m E And if you give me half a chance F#m E I'd do it now, I'd do it now, right now, you fascist!! F#m E I know we could all feel safe like Sharon Tate F#m E And we could give it all up, we could give, give, give it all up!
[Chorus 2]
A Asus2 And the newspapers, oh the newspapers!! Asus4 A Oh they'd be listening, listening to me giving it to you!! A Asus2 And the radio, what about the radio?! Asus4 A Oh they'd be listening to me giving it to you! F#m E Right mama, damn right mama
[Instrumental]
F#m E
[Verse 3]
F#m E I hear hissing, I hear hissing in the distance F#m E I hear the tanks crawling F#m E They're crawling over the hill, they're crawling over the hill F#m E Like rattlesnakes in the desert sun! F#m E Ah, they're blistering up my spell, they're blistering it up! F#m E They're breaking it up, they're breaking up my spell! F#m E And what else is there, what else have I got? F#m E What else have I got but that spell?
[Chorus 1]
A Asus2 Asus4 A Ah, leaving it, leaving it, I'm leaving it up to you A Asus2 Asus4 A Leaving it, leaving it, leaving it up to you A Asus2 Asus4 A Oh leaving it, leaving it, leaving it in the cloakroom for you
[Outro]
A Asus2 I've got to give it up, I've got to give it up! Asus4 A I've got to give it up, I've got to give it up, give it up! A Asus2 Up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up, give it up! Asus4 A For God's sake, take it! A I'm giving it up! Asus2 Gonna take it! Asus4 A Gotta get it out, get out of here! A Asus2 Asus4 A (Hellish screaming to fade)
