Full English Brexit Chords & Lyrics - Billy Bragg

[INTRO]
[Am] [Am] [G] [D]

[VERSE 1]
My [G]neighbours don't drink at the [D]local
Or have [G]kippers for breakfast like [D]me
The [Am]food that they eat smells dis[C]gusting
They'd [Am]rather drink coffee than [D]tea

[VERSE 2]
It's [G]true that their kids are re[D]spectful
They [G]gave me their seat on the [D]bus
But it's [Am]just that there's so many [C]of them
That I [Am]fear what will become of [D]us

[VERSE 3]
I'm not [Em]racist, all I [B]want is
To [C]make things how they used to [G]be [D]
But [Em]change is [B]strange and
[C]Nobody's listening to [G]me [D]

[VERSE 4]
I [G]cheered when our side won the [D]Cold War
Spread [G]freedom and peace all a[D]round
Now there's [Am]folks speaking Russian in [C]Tesco's
It's a [Am]shame the wall had to come [D]down

[VERSE 5]
I [G]know some are fleeing from [D]war zones
To [G]keep their young children from [D]harm
But my [Am]parents stayed put through the [C]Blitz years
And [Am]me? I was sent to a [D]farm

[VERSE 6]
Yeah the [Em]sun shines, but [B]sometimes
I don't [C]feel like this is my coun[G]try [D]
But to [Em]say so? [B]Oh no
I [C]never get no sympa[G]thy [D]

[VERSE 7]
[G]Once we ruled over an [D]empire
So it [G]feels like some kind of de[D]feat
To com[Am]ply with rules drawn up by [C]strangers
And [Am]measure in metres not [D]feet

[VERSE 8]
We [G]don't want to go but by [D]Jingo
If we [G]can't be in charge, then we [D]must
But [Am]don't be offended, dear [C]neighbour
It's not [Am]you: this is all about [D]us

[VERSE 9]
But it's [Em]alright, [B]alright
I [C]think I've found a reme[G]dy [D]
Yes it's [Em]alright, gonna be [B]alright
It's a [C]Full English Brexit for [G]me [D]
