D5 D6 (x2)


Some people might say my life is in a rut

I'm quite happy with what I've got

People might say that I should strive for more
                                 B
But I'm so happy I can't see the point
                       D#m
(some)things happening here today,
  B                          D#m
A show of strength with your boy's brigade
    B                D#m
And I'm so happy and you're so kind
    B                   D#m
You want more money, of course I don't mind
       E                      F#
To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes
        B                    D#m
And the public gets what the public wants
    E                      F#
But I don't get what the society wants.

          B                  D#m
I'm going underground (going underground)
             E                         F#
Well let the brass bands play and feet start to pound
      B                  D#m
Going underground (going underground)
         E                         F#
Well the boys all sing and let the boys all shout
      B         D#m E F#
For tomorrow -

D5                    D6                   D5
Some people might get some pleasure out of hate
                D6            D5
Me, I've enough already on my plate
                         D6                D5
(Some) people might need some tension to relax
              D6                    B
Me, I'm too busy dodging 'tween the flack
                  D#m
(What) you see is what you get,
       B                      D#m
You've made your bed so you better in lie it.
    B                       D#m
And choose your leaders and place your trust
         B                            D#m
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust,
           E                           F#
You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns
        B                     D#m
And the public wants what the public gets
    E                     F#
But I want nothing that society's got.

          B                    D#m
I'm going underground (going underground)
         E                    F#
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
      B                  D#m
Going underground (going underground)
             E                         F#
Well let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout
      C#m7
For tomorrow -

Woah! La la la la
      Bm

   C#m                       Bm
We talk and we talk until my head explodes
  C#m                       Bm
I turned on the news and my body froze
      B                   D#m
Those braying sheep on my T.V. screen
     E                    F#
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream

Db                 Fm  Gb  Ab
Going underground
          Db           Fm  Gb  Ab

Make this boy shout make this boy scream

Going underground (going underground)
             Gb                                 Ab
Well let the brass bands play and feet start to POW! POW! POW! POW!
      Db                 Fm
Going underground (going underground)
         Gb                        Ab
Well the boys all sing and let the boys all shout
