[Intro] Em C Em B Em C Em Em Em Em Em Em [Verse 1]
Em
There's a kid who was born

Em
and was raised in the west

Em
There's a kid from the east

Em
that never really fit in with the rest

Em
Every week they would meet

Em
in the street with their friends

Em
With the guns that they made

Em
and the caps that they stole

Em
They would fight to their death
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
This time we'll have victory

Em
Last time ended in defeat

Em                 A#
Our town becomes a battleground

A#            B
Battleground, battleground
[Chorus]
C        Em   D
West end riot,

B                  E
We'll be here next Saturday

         C                       G
With our guns and our heads held high

   Am                                   E
So listen up boys, you'd better not cry this time
[Verse 2]
Em
See a bum on the street that you think you recognize'

Em
Young kid never looked so bad when he was only 4 foot high

Em
6 o'clock runnin' home, I don't wanna be late

Em
Another Saturday of sun and war shared with our mates
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
This time we'll have victory

Em
Last time ended in defeat

Em                 A#
Our town becomes a battleground

A#            B
Battleground, battleground

So listen up boys, you'd better not cry
[Bridge]
C
Boys will be boys playin' up

           Am
and making lots of noise

D
Never used to talk about the future

                       B
Never thought that we'd have to care so

Em
There's a man that was born in the west

Em
workin' at a factory

Em
There's a man from the east

Em
who now runs the whole company

Em
How they've grown on their own,

Em
not like the kids they used to be

Em                                G    Em  E
Saturdays of sun and war are just fond memories
[Chorus]

So listen up boys, you'd better not cry

   Am                    C          D
So listen up boys, you'd better not cry

   Am                    C          D        E
So listen up boys, you'd better not cry this time
