[D#m] [E]
[B] [E] [F#]
[B] On a Thursday [D#m] in November [E] in the year of [B]
74,
The devil [D#m] came to Birmingham [E] to unleash his [F#] wicked war.
[B]
Carnage [D#] and destruction [E] were the order [B] of the day,
And blood it [E] filled the gutters [F#] of the city to [B] read and bathe.
But two wrong [D#m] faithfuls make a [E] riot, and from that [B] tragic night
Six men [D#m] were arrested, beaten up, and [F#] brutalized,
[B]
Tortured and [D#] imprisoned [E] for a crime that they did [B] not do.
If this is British [E] justice, then [F#] your justice will [B] not do.
Pray [F#] these six men set [B] them free,
[E] Give [F#] them back their [B] liberty,
Sentenced to [D#m] a lifetime for [E] a crime that they did [B] not do.
If this is British justice, then [F#] your justice will [B] not do.
We have seen your British [D#m]
justice on [E] the streets of [B] Belfast town,
With your deadly [D#m] plastic bullets as [E] you shot young [F#] children down.
[B] Oh, the stench of your [D#m]
hypocrisy [E] and your double [B]-dealing lies,
The Birmingham Six [E] are innocent, [F#] but justice [B] denied.
The Birmingham Six [D#m] are innocent, [E] just like the Guild [B] before,
But you caged them up [D#] like cannonballs [E] for twelve [C#] long years and more.
[F#] [B] So here's to [D#m] Patrick, Richard and Jerry, [E] Huey and Billy [B] and John,
We know that you didn't do it boys, [F#] and your freedom can't [B] be long.
[E] Pray [G#] these six men set [B] them free,
[E]
Give [F#] them back their [B] liberty,
Tortured and [A#m] imprisoned [E] for a crime that they [B] didn't do.
If this is British justice, then [F#] your justice will [B] not do.
[E] Pray [F#] these six men set [B] them free,
[E] Give [F#] them back their [B] liberty,
[B]
Tortured and [D#m] imprisoned for [E] a crime that they didn't [B] do.
If this is British [E] justice, then [F#] your justice will not [B] do.
If this is British [C#m] justice, then [F#] your justice will [B] not do.
