-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning:EADGBe

Yo, this is Oli, and this is 'Blood On My Hands' by 'The King Blues'.

A raucous song by a truly awesome band, have fun playin this romper stomper of a track.  

For the intro, verse, interlude and outro play chords barred with upbeat reggae feel.

For the chorus strike each chord with feeling (lol?) 3 times.

Here goes my second tab!

Intro:   x4


Verse 1:
                                               
The job centre is handin out bullet-proof vests
                                                                         
For years you've been tellin me I'm trouble makin scum now i can be the best
                                                           
If you love England with all your heart she'll take ya to the grave
                                                       
If I can truly be the best then I'll never be your slave


Chorus:
                               
    Well I won't give my life away
                              
To a government that oppressed me
                         
I won't have blood on my hands
                              
For the sake of the economy
                            
Well I won't give my life away
                              
To a government that oppressed me
                         
I won't have blood on my hands
                    
For the sake of the economy


Interlude:   x4


Verse 2:
                                                    
Everyday the same, all of the newspapers they read 
                                                 
I see them pushing racism and difference of creed 
                                               
Trying to claim, that they are fighting for God
                                                              
Re-write all the school books say that oil is thicker than blood


Chorus:
                               
    Well I won't give my life away
                              
To a government that oppressed me
                         
I won't have blood on my hands
                              
For the sake of the economy
                            
Well I won't give my life away
                              
To a government that oppressed me
                         
I won't have blood on my hands
                    
For the sake of the economy

Outro:   x8
