New Art For The People Tab

by The Indelicates



The song is actually 2 semitones higher but you may find these chords easier to play (and sing!).


		
But for the cum in your hair,
		
The cocaine on your teeth
		
You'd be just like the girls
		
That I kissed on the heath
		
Your mother left and you're all alone
		
And the world is at your feet
			
You smell like ash, mildew and hash
		
Can barely even speak


						
And it's so sad that you're so sad and you're so bad for me
						
I followed your perfume as you ran down the street
						
I caught you and held you and pushed back your fringe and swore undying loyalty
		
We'll make a new art for the people,
		
A new art for the people
		
A new art for the people

you and me.


		
I followed you home
		
Knocked at your door
		
Offered myself in the kitchen
		
Passed out on the floor
		
And when you shout, I get terrified
		
And then I love you more
			
You sound middle class, but I'll let it pass,
		
I don't understand you at all


						
And it's so sad that you're so sad and you're so bad for me
						
I swallowed my pride with a pill and decided to give you back your key
						
You caught me and held me and I took your hand and swore undying loyalty
		
We'll make a new art for the people,
		
A new art for the people
		
A new art for the people

you and me.


		
Under the covers forever
		
Everything well within reach
		
A small price to pay for our freedom
		
And for our celebrity
		
Such ornaments and gorgeous things
		
Like string lights at the beach
			
Intensive care and conditioned air
		
And our faces on TV


						
And it's so sad but they're so glad that you're so bad for me
						
The dark days ahead and the blood on the bed and the cover of the NME
						
They gave us a cheque and took us by our necks and swore undying loyalty
		
We'll make a new art for the people,
		
A new art for the people
		
A new art for the people

you and me.
