[Verse 1]
 
                C       Em
Did you see the stylish kids in the riot?
Am                              F   F     F  F
Shovelled up like muck, and set the night on fire.
F  F    C                      Em
Wombles bleed.  Truncheons and Shields,
F                         G
You know I cherish you my love.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
              C                   Em
But there's a rumour spread nasty disease around town,
Am                           F    F   F    F
Caught round the houses with your trousers down.
F F    C            Em              F              G
A head rush, in the bush, you know I cherish you my love.
          F              G        G  G  F#  F
Oh, how I cherish you my love,
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
                     Fm
Tell me what can you want, now you've got it all.
C                C7      
Ah the scene is obscene, 
                 F                  D
time'll strip it away, a year and a day.
         G
And Bill Bones, Bill Bones knows what I mean,
              C            Em
He knows it's eating, it's chewing me up,
             Am    
And it's not right 
                      F    F   F  F     F
for young lungs to be coughing up blood...
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
F     C                   Em   
It's all, it's all in my hands,
F                   G
 and it's all up the walls.
        C                   
All the stale chips are up, 
         Em
and they hope stakes are down,
          Am               
It's these ignorant faces, 
     F     F    F    F     F
they bring this town down.
F C                       Em
I sighed, and sunken with pride,
  F                        G
I passed myself down on my knees,
      F                        G      G  G  F#  F
Yes I passed myself down on my knees,
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
                         Fm    
Now tell me what can you want, 
                  C
see you've got it all.
                     C7
The whole scene is obscene,
                    F                 D
Time will strip it away, a year and a day.
         G
And Bill Bones, Bill Bones knows what I mean.
                 C            Em
He knows there's fewer more distressing sights,
                Am               F   F    F
Then that of an English man in a baseball cap.
F   F     C                        Em
Now we'll die in the class we were born,
             F                    G
And that's a class of our own, my love.
  F                    G
A class of our own, my love.

Did you see the stylish kids in the riot?
Am                              F   F     F  F
Shovelled up like muck, and set the night on fire.
F  F    C                      Em
Wombles bleed.  Truncheons and Shields,
                      F              G
You know I cherish you my love.
      F              G      G  G  G  C
And I cherish you my love.
