[Bm] [C] [D] [Em]
[A] [C]
[D] [G] [Bm] There's change [Em] coming once [Bm] and for [C#] all
U makes the front [A] page
[C] And man U is [D] [G] major news
[D] Tomorrow [Em] they'll see [Bm] what we are
[A] And sure as a star
[C] We ain't come this far
[D] [Em] to [F#] [Em] lose
[F#] [E] [B]
[Em] [F#] [E] [C] This is the [C#m] story [C] we needed to write
That's been kept out [C#m] of sight but no [C] more
In a [C#m] few hours by [C] dawn's early [E] light
We'll be [C] ready to [C#m] fight us a [C] war
[G] [D#] It's time to [Em] get ready to [A] stay
Talk about [E] season the [D#] day
[B] [C#] Writing in [Bm] ink or in [G] blood
It's the [B] same either [C#] way
[Bm] They're gonna damn well [F#] pay
Open [Em] poll, it's a [C] snug and [Em] it's ready
We don't care if we're [E] dead or [C] alive
[Em] [C] Set [E] pillows are [F#] under his [C] head
While he's begging for [E] bread to survive
[G] [A] Joe you can [E] stop counting [A] sheep
We're gonna [Gm] sing, get [D#] asleep
[Bm] You got the thugs with their sticks and their slugs
Yeah, but [C#] we gotta [Bm] promise the [Am] king
[G] Once and for all, if they don't mind their [F] manners
We'll plead them
[C] [Bm] Once and for [E] all, we won't carry no banners
[Am] And [E] don't spout [Am] [A#] freedom
Finally we's raising the stakes
[B] This time whatever it [E] takes
[G] This time the [F] union [Em] awakes
[F] Once and for [C]
all
[F] [F#] [B]
[E] This is for kids shining shoes on the street
With no shoes on their feet every day
This is for guys sweating blood in the shops
While the bosses and cops look away
[G] Unseeing kids standing tall
Glaring and rearing the [Bm] brawl
Armies of guys who are sick from the lies
Getting ready to rise to their [C] hall
Once and for all, [G] there'll be [Am] blood on the wall
[F] If they doubt us
[Am] They think they're on in this town
[E] But this town [Am] will shut down without [A#] us
Ten thousand kids in the [F] square
Ten thousand fists [E] in the air
Ten thousand [F] fists show you it's gonna play fair
Once and for [G] [B] all
[Am] [B] [Am] [B] Once and for all
[F#] [B]
[F] [A] [B]
[B] [B] There's [A]
[E] change [F#m] coming once [E] and for all
[B] You're getting to old
[E] To be, to [Bm] keep [E] holding [A] on
[E] A new [F#m] world is coming [E] for you
[B] And your weed is too
[E] Till once [F#] and for [Bm] all
[E] [G#] Gone
[D#] [B] [F#m]
Once and [G#] for all
Once [F#m] and [C#] for [G#] all
