>> Chords - Standard Tuning [Verse 1]
   A                  E
Billions laughed and no one cried

    D
The day the politicians died

    A                E
Celebrations spread worldwide

    D
The day the politicians died

   D
Even their own mothers

            E
Their own husbands and wives

         D
Said, "Now all men are brothers"

       E
Let's get on with our lives
[Verse 2]

Celebrations spread worldwide

    D
The day the politicians died

    D
We've risen from the mud

             E
We're different from the beasts

         D
We've got the taste for blood

      E
So let's eat all the priests
[Verse 3]
     A                  E
Billions laughed and no one cried

It's all one big party now

'Cause all the politicians died
