Em           A 
This England made me, 
D 			   Bm 
Between a war and a rocket span, 
Em 		       A 
You've found a crib it saves me, 
D 			Bm 
And teach me wrong and right, 
Em                A 
And the world was talking, 
D                        Bm 
Never got it's chance to say, 
Em                    A 
When there's too much talking, 
D                       Bm 
Nobody hears a word you say

Em        A 
You won't see, 
D                   Bm 
So baby now I won't hear, 
Em                A 
It's blind communications, 
D                         Bm 
Only lasts throughout the year, 
Em                     A  
And half of what we're saying, 
D                  Bm 
Is half-way to the truth, 
Em                A  
It's blind communications, 
D                       Bm 
For a million heart and fools 
 
Em       A  
I am a witness, 
D                      Bm 
To a land of a million fools, 
Em          A  
All placing bets on life, 
D                     Bm 
And hate the ones you lose, 
Em 		A  
And all who're lonely, 
D 			Bm 
Never get the chance to say, 
Em 		      A  
The fact that one and only,  
D 			   B 
Will be the chance to even play 
 
Chorus 
------ 
Em 	  A 
You won't see, 
D 		    Bm 
So baby now I won't hear, 
Em 		  A 
It's blind communications, 
D 			  Bm 
Only lasts throughout the year, 
Em 			A  
And half of what we're saying, 
D 		   Bm 
Is half-way to the truth, 
Em 		  A  
It's blind communications, 
D 			Bm 
For a million heart and fools 
 
 
Em    A  
Hello monday, 
D 		     Bm 
The weekend's just a blur, 
Em 		  A  
I've been burning bridges, 
D 			    Bm 
and now I'm begging at your door, 
Em 	   A  
So keep on working, 
D 			    Bm 
Cos it's a chance for me to play, 
Em 		     A  
Cos there's too much talking, 
D 			     Bm 
When you believe the words I say
