Elvis Costello - Oliver's Army (Glastonbury 2013) chords
Start Jamming...
[D] [E] [A]
[D] [E] [A] Don't start me [D] talking, I [E] could talk all night.
[A] My mind goes [D] sleepwalking while [C#] I'm putting the world to [F#m] right.
Conquering [B]
misinformation, [F#] have you got [B] yourself an occupation?
[A] All of us are means here to stay, all of us [D] are on their [A] way.
And [F#m] I would rather [D] be in a world that's [E] burned [A] here too.
[D] [E] [A] You know I was a jack-o'-lantern, [D] you [E] hear it crack and [A] smile.
But it's no laughing [D] matter, the [C#] truth that I've [C#m] heard about.
Gonna [B] chase one inch of truth, [C#] I'm one mile away, [Bm] don't want to rest my [A] head.
All of us are means here to stay, all of us are [D] on their [A] way.
And I would rather be in [D] a world that's [E] burned here [A] too.
[D] [E] [G#m] [F#] Hong Kong's up in graphs, [E] yonder [D#] is where the maps.
[C#] We [F#] could be in Palestine, [E] over a fire, [F#] shine his light.
We've got Mars, we've got [F#] Mercury, and we'll chant to [G#] the sky.
[B] Nothing's for [E] granted, it's [F#] a professional [B] career.
No, it could be [E] erased, just the way [D#] it is.
The church [G#m] is here, if you're out of luck or out of [D#] work.
We can send you to [C#] your [B] heaven's door.
All of us are means here [F#] to stay, [B] all of us are on their [F#] way.
[G#m]
And I would rather [E] be in a world that's [F#] burned [B] here too.
[G#m] And I would rather [E] be in a world that's [F#] burned [B] here too.
[G#m] And I would rather [E] be in a world that's [F#] burned here [B] too. Yeah!
