Leaders Of The Free World
Standard tuning - EADGBE
Intro - Em B Am C
(C) Em
I'm sick of working for a living
B
I'm just ticking off the days till I die
Am
Oh, I miss you Louise, yeah...
C
And the sickest little pleasures keep me going in between pulling teeth
Em
Oh periscope up
B
I've been looking for a ladder
Am
I need to see the commander in chief
C
And remind him what was passed onto me
Em
Your mum don't sleep!
B
And the friends you keep!
Am Em
I didn't raise a thief!
B
I didn't raise a thief!
Am
But the leaders of the free world
G B
Are just little boys throwing stones
Am
And it's easy to ignore
G B
Till they're knocking on the door of your homes
(Solo - Em B Am C)
Em
My thinking isn't driven
B
But the music always gives me a lift
Am
I'm so easy to please, yeah
C
But I think we dropped the baton like the 60's didn't happen, oh no!
Em
Oh periscope up
B
Should be looking for a ladder
Am
I need to see the commander in chief
C
And remind him what was passed onto me
Em
Your mum don't sleep!
B
And the friends you keep!
Am Em
I didn't raise a thief!
B
I didn't raise a thief!
Am
But the leaders of the free world
G B
Are just little boys throwing stones
Am
And it's easy to ignore
G B
Till they're knocking on the door of your homes
Am
But the leaders of the free world
G B
Are just little boys throwing stones
Am
And it's easy to ignore
G B
Till they're knocking on the door of your homes
Em B
Passing the gun from father to feckless son
Am C
We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young
Em B
Passing the gun from father to feckless son
Am C
We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young
