Verse 1:
 
       A 
It's a long walk to the gallows 
       D 
It's a small step to swing free 
A 
The crying in the tower 
          D 
For my conspirators and me 
A 
Gunpowder and modem 
      D 
And a dream of liberty 
                 E 
And then they'll tell you 
                  D 
Don't try this at home 
                E 
Oh yes, they'll tell you

Don't try this at home 

Verse 2:
 
       A 
If you walk on the beach with King Canute 
          D 
You'll be walking back alone 
  A 
Tonight he'll dine on oysters 
         D 
While we fall like green acorns 
         A 
We'll be putting down our roots 
             D 
Right in the centre of the storm 
                E 
Oh, but they'll tell you 
                  D 
Don't try this at home 
                E 
Oh yes, they'll tell you

Don't try this at home 

Bridge:
 
           Bm                F#m 
The cry of gulls, the hum of streets 
            Bm                   F#m 
The buzz of phones, the march of feet 
             Bm               F#m 
We'll meet tonight to draw up plans 
     Bm            F#m     Bm F#m D E 
Exclamations, ampersands 

Interlude: A D A D 

Verse 3:
 
A 
Somewhere across the water 
        D 
They're storming palace gates 
A 
Scared of the moth-flame metaphor 
   D 
We fall asleep and wait 
A 
Singing for a future 
        D 
But the Chorus comes too late 
                E 
Because they'll tell you 
                  D 
Don't try this at home 
                E 
Oh yes, they'll tell you 
                  D 
Don't try this at home
