The Levellers son una popular banda inglesa que toca folk rock o Indie rock influenciado por el punk y la música inglesa tradicional. Tienen origen en Brighton, Inglaterra, donde el gupo fue fundado en 1988. Hay varias historias acerca de cómo obtuvieron su nombre: de los Levellers, una facción democrática radical de Oliver Cromwells New Model Army, o como una referencia a "The Level", un área de Brighton alrededor de un triángulo verde en el centro de Brighton

This is ONE WAY ... by the levellers ...
The first track on the 'Levelling the Land' album..
It is in 4/4 timing and the chords are as follows ...
BmDEAGD There's only one way of life and thats your own, your own A your own........
Play 1 bar of each chord .. 4/4 timing
DDFGDDF
Then the first verse starts ....
GD My father, when i was younger took me up on to the hill ...... FG that looked down on the city smog and above the factory spill. DF Now this is where i come, when i want to be free ... Well he never G was in his life time .. and these words stuck with me ...
Hey ....
Then it repeats the same chords ie (DFG a few times...)
And thats the whole song ... wow .. that was hard ...
The rest of the lyrics are like this : -
And so i ran from all of this, and i climbed the highest hill and i looked down onto my life, above the factory spill.
And i looked down onto my life, as the family discrace, then all my friends on the starting line , their wages off to chase, Yes, and all my friends and all their jobs and all this bloody waste..
Theres only one .. way of life .. and thats your own ....... etc
Well, well ,well I grew up learned to love and laugh, circled A's on the underpass.. the noise we thought would never stop .. died a death as the punks grew up .. and we choked on all our dreams, we wrestled with our fears.. were running through the heartless concrete streets.. chasing our ideas.. run!
And all the problems of the Earth.. wont be solved by this guitar, and they wont stop coming either by the life i've had so far... And the bright lights of my home town, wont be getting any dimmer .. though their calling has receded like some old and distant singer. And they dont look so appealing to the eyes of this poor sinner..
Chorus (twice)
As you can see .. Its just such a difficult song its unbelievable...
