Barry's Song - lyrics and chords

For Bret: it's one of those songs where I move the same shape around a lot, and it's in Drop D. I wrote out the intro ages ago as sheet music with chords above: I think that those are the right shapes.

Emaj9/F# F#maj9/G#

Addicted to our screens.

Gmaj9/A F#maj9/G#

Fighting 'stead of chilling.

Gmaj9/A Amaj9/B

The terrorists strain

Bbmaj9/C Bmaj9/C#

To open a vein Emaj7/G# Dmaj7/F# And then they start the killing

Fmaj7-Fmaj7b9 ... hammer-on thing

Zombies who won't croak

Fmaj-Fmaj7b9

Brand the kids as wokies E6/9(b13) F#6/9(b13)

The deadlines still come

G6/9(b13) Ab6/9(b13)

As flouro lights hum

(Ab, Db, Ab, Db,Eb, Ab)

And I mill around the pokies!

Gmaj9/A Amaj9/B

Oh, what's the point of me

Dmaj7/F# Amin9/E

In this faux democracy? Emaj9/F# F#maj9/G#

Miles of urban sprawl

Gmaj9/A F#maj9/G#

slow progress to a crawl

Gminor11 Aminor11

And all I do is sell them

Fminor11 Eminor9/B

To help the rich compel them

Fminor11 Eminor9/B

To heed their beck and call.

Gmaj9/A Amaj9/B

Oh, why can't Edgar see Dmaj7/F#

He's made it 'us and them' Cmaj7/A

Instead of we?

All in 4/4.
