Take Down The Union Jack Tab

by Billy Bragg


yeah, so this is the first Billy Bragg Song i figured out on my own. its also the first
tab ive posted. hope you enjoy playing this song as much as i do.

if you wanna be in key with the cd, put a capo on the 4th or 5th fret. i usually just
play it open though. 

Take Down The Union Jack by Billy Bragg


take down the union jack
                      
it clashes with the sunset 
                    
and put it in the attic
                      
with the emperor's old clothes

(same chords)
when did it fall apart
sometime in the eighties
when the good and the great
gave way to the greedy and the mean

        
Britain isnt cool you know

its not a proper country
                              
it doesnt even have a patron's say
                                                     
its just an economical union thats past its sell by date

gilbert and george ar taking a piss
                                                     
what could be more british then heres a picture of my bum
                                    ()
gilbert and george are taking a piss
