DEATH OR GLORY
The Clash

INTRO  C G F C  C G F C
       F C G C  F C G C

    C                          G
Now every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world
    F                            C         G
And ends up making payments on a sofa or a girl
C                                 G
Love and hate tattooed across the knuckles of his hands
F                                      C               G
Hands that slap his kids around 'cause they don't understand how

        F         C       G                  C
CHORUS:  Death or glory becomes just another story
        F         C       G                  C
         Death or glory becomes just another story

Now every gimmick-hungry yob digging gold from rock-n-roll
Grabs the mike to tell us he'll die before he's sold
But I believe in this and it's been tested by research
He who fucks nuns will later join the church

CHORUS

BRIDGE1:
F                           C
fear in the down sex,       they say lie low
you say ok,                 don't wanna play a show
no other thinking,          would you get that boy now
playing the blues of kings, sure looks better now


CHORUS

In every dingy basement on every dingy street
Every dragging handclap over every dragging beat
It's just the beat of time, the beat that must go on
If you've been trying for years, we already heard your song

CHORUS

                    F       C                     F        C (throughout)
BRIDGE: We're gonna march a long way, we're gonna travel a long time
        We're gonna travel over mountains, we're gonna travel over seas
        We're gonna fight you brother, we're gonna fight 'til you lose
        We're gonna raise trouble, we're gonna raise hell
        We're gonna fight you brother, we're gonna raise hell

CHORUS

end on C
