THE MASSES AGAINST THE CLASSES

(Standard Tuning)

Thanks to: David Sharples (stavrosthehamster@nme.com for any suggestions, corrections, chat etc)

The government was founded on the principle that it protected property from the masses - and so it remains (Noam Chomsky)

Hello it's us again

We're still so in love with you

Success is an ugly word
F#5
Especially in your tiny world

Chorus
G#5        E5
The masses against the classes

I hope you hear this nice and clear

Our love is unconditional

Our hate is yours to feed upon

we love the winter it brings us closer together

ah ah ah ah ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

N.B. Not very sure about this bit below, it's all based on
an ascending run, this isn't perfect (the first bit's
right) the rest sounds OK to play

ah ah ah ah ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
