Brand new song, they've played it live but now the final version is here. Some words are off here and there and some plain missing cause I learned them by ear. If you have corrections in them let me know. Enjoy! I play E and Emaj7, respectively, as:
e|-------|

men.

It's the hour of the morning on the day after the dawning when the sun they said

Was it Cromwell or Orwell who first lead you to the stairwell which leads only forever to
kingdoms to come?
          A                            C#m
Rushed alone by guiding hands, whispers of the promised land

    D                                   B
They wished you luck and handed you a gun

Life could be so gay

We're going nowhere

But nowhere, nowhere is on our way
[Verse 2]
   E          Emaj7          E              Emaj7  
In the pub that night racking out the lines of shite

Putting to right all of the world's great wrongs

karaoke turn and murdered our best song

E                   Emaj7               E           Emaj7          G#m
Told the governor's wife about the last night of his life, she turned away in tears called
you a liar

Where are all your dreams now? The battalions, once so proud, 

D                                 B
Lost in some old song and hanging on the old barbed-wire
[Chorus]
C                     E
Well life could be so handsome

Nowhere in the institutions, did they teach that revolution?

G#m
Something that could ever come to pass

        A                               C#m
All we tried once before was the king's head on the floor

           D                                           B
And we got booted out the boozer cause someone smashed the glass
[Chorus]

Life could be okay

C           E
We're going nowhere
