VERSE
Emaj7
 From the playground to the wasteground
     A6/B
Hope ends at 17
Emaj7
 Sweeping floors and filling shelves
       A6/B
Forced into government schemes
B
 Eleven years spent to dig out ditches
   C#m7
Forget your schoolday dreams
Bm7
 Guarantees and lie-filled speeches
    F#m
But nothing's what it seems

 Qualified and patronized

With everything to lose
C#7
Ooh, ooh, ooh

VERSE
Emaj7
 No choice or chance for the future
    A6/B
The rich enjoy less tax
Emaj7
 Dress the girls in pretty pink
    A6/B
The shit goes to the blacks
B
 A generation's heart torn out
    C#m7
And covered up the facts
    Bm7
The only thing they'll understand
     F#m
Is a wall against their backs
Em
 The only hope now left for those
     Dmaj7
With everything to lose
     Em
With everything to lose
     Dmaj7
With everything to lose
C#7
Ooh, ooh, ooh

VERSE (variation)
Emaj7             Fdim7
 In desperation’s empty eyes
       F#m7          A6/B
Signed up and thrown away
Emaj7                    Fdim7
 There's drugs replacing dignity
    F#m7                A6/B
The short sharp shock repaid
B
 There'll be no money if you dare to question
C#m7
Working the Tory way
Bm7
 The truth is up there carved in stone
      F#m
Where 21 dead now lay
Em
 A family's loss for a few pounds saved
     Dmaj7
With everything to lose
     Em
With everything to lose
     Dmaj7
With everything to lose
     Em
With everything to lose
Dmaj7
Everything to lose
C#7      | C#7 |
Ooh, ooh
