The Strawbs "New World"
This is my first time typing up a transcription,
if any errors are present, please inform me
Em, Emadd9, Em, Bm, Em, B7
(Em) There's blood in the dust (Bm) where the citys heart(C) beats
(Bm) The children play games that they take from the(C) streets
(Em) How can you teach (Bm) when you've so much to(C) learn
(Chorus)
(G) May you turn, (D) may you turn (Bm) may you turn, (C) may you turn
(G) may you turn, (C) may you turn (Bm) in your grave (C) New World
Em, Emb5, CM7, Em, Bm, Em, B7
There's hate in your eyes, I've seen it before
Planning destruction behind the locked door
Were you the coward who fired the last shot
(Chorus)
May you rot (6X) in your grave, New World
****Instrumental Break**** (NOTE: I have tried to tab this out for guitar, It's mainly a mellotron I
but
