[Intro]
E

[Verse 1]
E
 Whats the point in an education
D
 When you have to pay for the privilege
C
 This side of the truth where no sun shines
D                                      E
 They don't count the cripples and the blind

[Verse 2]
E
 I was thinking everybody had a chance
D
 Like a dream stretched way too far
C
 All this time such a debt to the city
D                            E
 I don't know who's the real enemy

[Chorus]
C
 This is the socialist serenade
D
 Yes I have money but I hate champagne
G
 This is the socialist serenade
F                        E
 I can't see the past anywhere

[Verse 3]
E
 Some greater benefit for the people
D
 Ha ha ha ha we all believed in you
C
 Is it about the politics of celebrity
D                                  E
 Or endless days in the sun of Tuscany

[Chorus]
C
 This is the socialist serenade
D
 Yes I have money but I hate champagne
G
 This is the socialist serenade
F                        E
 I can't see the past anywhere
   E
Anywhere

[Break]
E D C D E

[Chorus]
C
 This is the socialist serenade
D
 Yes I have money but I hate champagne
G
 This is the socialist serenade
F                        E
 I can't see the past anywhere
   E
Anywhere

[Outro]

Change your name to new

Forget the fucking labour
