[Verse 1]
BSitting on my dooGrstep have you heard the nAews ?
No I mean did you hAmear the news wheBn it went up in flaEmmes
It's the sBmall men with the bGig head
Who chokAe the life from the best of them
AmBut they had to burn the rBules to win the gEmame
[Chorus]
When they drop the boAmmbs
IB'm gonna loGve you all dAay
And they'll play alAmong
TBhe kids will fGind us in the aAshes like poAmmpey
It's such a shBame the diggers and knGowers will all Asay
And you and AmI won't hear them cryBing "What a wEmaste"
[Verse 2]
Now she's sBweet your Lady-liGberty style-guardAian of rights
But she bleAmeds in your bedsBheets in the miEmddle of the night
And she's carBting off the neighGbours but you loAve the way she Amlies
So on your doorstBep her banner still flEmies
[Chorus]
When they drop the boAmmbs
IB'm gonna loGve you all dAay
And they'll play alAmong
TBhe kids will fGind us in the aAshes like poAmmpey
It's such a shBame the diggers and knGowers will all Asay
And you and AmI won't hear them cryBing "What a wEmaste"
[Bridge]
IEmt's a long way to the tGip of the crown

GEmrander men than you havGe tried
GArander men have drowned
SEmaid it's a long way to the Gtip of the crown

GEmrander men than you have trGied
GArander men have drowned
Oh Emit's a long way to the tGip of the crown
AAnd it's a long way Amdown
EmGrander men than you have tGried
AGrander men have drAmowned
[Chorus]

[Verse 1]

B G A

Sitting on my doorstep have you heard the news ?

Am B Em

No I mean did you hear the news when it went up in flames

B G

It's the small men with the big head

Who choke the life from the best of them

Am B Em

But they had to burn the rules to win the game

[Chorus]

When they drop the bombs

B G A

I'm gonna love you all day

And they'll play along

B G A Am

The kids will find us in the ashes like pompey

B G A

It's such a shame the diggers and knowers will all say

Am B Em

And you and I won't hear them crying "What a waste"

[Verse 2]

B G A

Now she's sweet your Lady-liberty style-guardian of rights

Am B Em

But she bleeds in your bedsheets in the middle of the night

B G A Am

And she's carting off the neighbours but you love the way she lies

B Em

So on your doorstep her banner still flies

[Chorus]

When they drop the bombs

B G A

I'm gonna love you all day

And they'll play along

B G A Am

The kids will find us in the ashes like pompey

B G A

It's such a shame the diggers and knowers will all say

Am B Em

And you and I won't hear them crying "What a waste"

[Bridge]

Em G

It's a long way to the tip of the crown

And it's a long way down

Em G

Grander men than you have tried

Grander men have drowned

Em G

Said it's a long way to the tip of the crown

And it's a long way down

Em G

Grander men than you have tried

Grander men have drowned

Em G

Oh it's a long way to the tip of the crown

A Am

And it's a long way down

Em G

Grander men than you have tried

A Am

Grander men have drowned

[Chorus]

When they drop the bombs

B G A

I'm gonna love you all day

And they'll play along

B G A Am

The kids will find us in the ashes like pompey

B G A

It's such a shame the diggers and knowers will all say

Am B

And you and I won't hear them crying
