Chords for Riz MC - "ENGLISTAN" (Official Music Video)

The referendum or whether it's the barrage of anti-immigrant media coverage in the run-up to it,
for some, the result has compounded a feeling of isolation, a sense of disconnection from the country [A] they moved [Am] to.
_ _ This _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Am] is England, _ God save the Queen, [C] now she ain't here to meet, but she [Dm] keeps my paper green.
Plus we [Am] never speak [G] on Missy O'Ireland, [C] where we all [F] surviving, [Dm] politeness leads to violence. _ _
This is England, the bridge we're living in, a kitchery [F] simmering, women in hijabs, syringe pop stars,
and the promise of a patella's a man you star, where the money you make and the man you are stand in opposite,
so we drink too hard, the banks rob you when the [A] news is half the truth, wrapped up in boobs and arse,
pigs hit kids so, boobs hit windows, [C] and the high street burns with broken dreams and [D] herb,
only thing you can't find in Tesco is [A] that and a sense of worth, so hide behind the Benz or [C] FERS,
go on land to find friends in Perth, but kick the wrong [D] side for a free trial, later detention [C] first.
_ God save the Queen, now she ain't here to [G] meet, but she keeps my paper green.
[F] Plus we never [G] speak on Missy O'Ireland, where we all [B] surviving, politeness leads to violence.
[Am] _ _ _
_ God save the Queen, [C] now she ain't here to [G] meet, but she [Dm] keeps my paper green.
Plus we never speak [G] on Missy O [C]'Ireland, where we all [G] surviving, [D] politeness leads to violence.
_ [Dm] Well you can get famous fast for a day, you can get [F] bailiffs asking for pay,
A-list to faceless, everybody plays, roll the dice, it's always snake eyes mate,
racist beef, [N] cakes and tea, all go together like Do Re Mi,
the hills of Alive with the [Am] sound of music, gyro checks and schools that creep,
soon we all gonna be moving east, Delhi and Beijing, [C] we make some rupees [G] and the empire [Dm] strikes back,
[D] but them sacks are packed, save your [Am] seats, till then you just make the darkest weeds,
create your [C] parties and rave on our streets, is Britain great?
Well hey, [D] then ask me,
that is where I [G] live and why my heart beats.
_ [Em] God save the Queen, now she ain't [G] here to meet, but she keeps my [B] paper green.
Plus we never speak [Em] on Missy [G] O'Ireland, [Em] where we all [G]
surviving, politeness leads to violence.
[Am] _ _ _
_ God save the Queen, [C] now she ain't [D] here to meet, [G] but she [Dm] keeps my paper green.
Plus we never speak [Em] on Missy O'Ireland, [C] where we [F] all surviving, [Gm] politeness [A] leads to violence.
_ [F#] So big up the Queen's Christmas speech, and all the shit her kids get for [N] free,
big up the stiff upper lip, half-closed lip, wash half off the class A's and base drops,
big up the class born to rule, all in the same class, it's boarding school,
[A] we're only all in it together to watch X-Factor and Penalty Shootout,
so we lose hair with a dog, all bid for your good aftermath, school pub [C] is curry and kebab, _
[D] and the weather's so crap, but still we sunbathe with the rain on tap,
[A] try and make the best of what's bad, that's why we [C] wave the flag,
knee deep in a field of mud [D] with 63 million screaming fans,
[Am]
all for a green and pleasant land, all for a [C] mean and pleasant land, all for a [A] mean and pleasant land.
[C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] God save the Queen, now she ain't here [B] to meet, but she keeps my paper green.
Plus [G] we're near the sea, on this little island, where we're all [Dm]
surviving,
politeness leads to violence.
[Am] _ _ _
_ God save the Queen, [C] now she ain't here [Fm] to meet, [G] but she [Dm] keeps my paper green.
Plus we're near the sea, on this [Em] little island, where we're all [F]
surviving,
politeness leads [C] to violence. _ _ _ _
