(Always strum once) GBm So rolls a riot van AmG And Sparks excitement in the boys BmAmG But the policeman look annoyed BmAm Perhaps these are ones they should avoid
GBmAm
(Start to strum rhythmically) G Got a chase last night BmAmD From men with truncheons dressed in hats G We didn't do that much wrong BmAm Still ran away though for the laugh D Just for the laugh
(Strum once, again) GBm And please just stop talking AmGBm Cause they won't find us if you do AmGBm Oh those silly boys in blue AmGBmAm Well they won't catch me and you
(Strum rhythmically, again) G Have you been drinking, son BmAmD You don't look old enough to me G I'm sorry, officer BmAm Is there a certain age you're supposed to be D Cause nobody told me
(Strum once for the rest of the song) GBm And up rolls the riot van AmGBm And these lads just wind the coppers up AmGBm They ask why they don't catch proper crooks AmGBmAm They get their address and their names took
But they couldn't care less
[SOLO]
GBm Thrown in the riot van, AmGBm and all the coppers kicked him in, AmGBm and there was no way he could win, AmGBmAm just had to take it on the chin.
