De Do Do Do De Da Da Da
The Police
Zenyatta Mondata 1980
This song is about the way 'upper class' people
use words to confuse and manipulate people.
The chords are easier than they look.

[Verse 1]
A          F#m    C#m
Don't think me unkind
A         F#m      C#m
Words are hard to find
A             F#m                C#m
They're only cheques I've left unsigned
A                  F#m         C#m
From the banks of chaos in my mind
D                          E
And when their eloquence escapes me
D                          E        D
Their logic ties me up and rapes me
[Chorus]
  Aadd9        E7sus4/A
De do do do de da da da
   Eadd9                    D
Is all I want to say to you
  Aadd9        E7sus4/A
De do do do de da da da
      Eadd9                          D
Their innocence will pull me through
  Aadd9        E7sus4/A
De do do do de da da da
   Eadd9                    D
Is all I want to say to you
  Aadd9        E7sus4/A
De do do do de da da da
        Eadd9                           D
They're meaningless and all that's true
[Verse 2]
A      F#m             C#m
Poets, priests and politicians
A             F#m               C#m
Have words to thank for their positions
A          F#m                C#m
Words that scream for your submission
A             F#m              C#m
And no-one's jamming their transmission
D                            E
 'Cos when their eloquence escapes you
D                            E          D
 Their logic ties you up and rapes you
[Chorus]
  Aadd9        E7sus4/A
