Introduction:

 C                 C7M                         C                                 C7M 
Here's a story about the rules of death and glory
            Em                                                                 (Riff 1)
                   F                                                   Am 
It's the hour of the morning on the day after the dawning
                   Bb                                                         G 
When the sun they said would never set finally set again
                 C                   C7M                             C                           C7M 
Was it cromwell or orwell who first led you to the stairwell
              Em                                                     (Riff 2)
                   F                                           Am 
Rushed alone by guiding hands whispers of the promised land
             Bb                                                             G          G# 
They wished you luck and handed you a gun
                                     C                   G  G# 
Life could be so handsome
                                     C         G  G# 
Life could be so gay
                           C 
We're going nowhere
           Bb                                               G 
But nowhere, nowhere's on our way
 C                               C7M                   C                                 C7M 
In the pub that night racking out the lines of shite
Em                                                                                 (Riff 1)
                 F                                                                                 Am 
Yes we thought that they were brothers then they half-murdered each other
                       Bb                                         G 
Then they did a karaoke turn and murdered our best song
 C                                     C7M                         C                                 C7M 
Told the governor's wife about the last night of his life
          Em                                                             (Riff 1)
                     F                                                         Am 
Where are all the old dreams now? the batallions, once so proud
 Bb                                                               G                                                G# 
Lost in some old song and hanging on the old barbedwire
                                     C                   G  G# 
Life could be so handsome
                                         C           G  G# 
It's so good to be okay
                           C 
We're going nowhere
           Bb                                               G 
But nowhere, nowhere's on our way
 C                                   C7M                               C                       C7M 
Nowhere in the institutions did they teach that revolution
          Em                                                             (Riff 1)
               F                                                           Am 
Oh we tried one, once before was the king's head on the floor
                         Bb                                                   G                                                      G# 
And we got booted out the boozer cause someone smashed the glass
                                     C                   G  G# 
Life could be so handsome
                               C           G  G# 
Life could be okay
                           C 
We're going nowhere
           Bb                                               G          G# 
But nowhere, nowhere's on our way
                                     C                   G  G# 
Life could be so handsome
                                         C         G  G# 
It's all gonna be okay
                           C 
We're going nowhere
               Bb                                               G 
Cause nowhere, nowhere's on our way
                                     C 
Nowhere's on our way
