Authority Song

4 4 4 4 4
Oh, they like to get you
4 4 4 4 -3 -3” 3 3 3
In a compromising position
5 5 5 5 5 5
They like to get you there
4 4 -3 -4 -4
And smile in your face
4 4 4 4
Well, they think they’re so
4 4 -3” 4 4 4 4 -3” 3 3
Cute when they got you in that condition
5 5 5 5 5 5 -3 -3 -4
But I think it’s a total disgrace,
4 4 -4
And I say

Chorus:
4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 -3 -3” 3
I fight authority, authority always wins
5 5 5 5 5 5 5
Well, I fight authority,
5 5 4 4 -3 -4 -4
Authority always wins
4 4 4 4 4 4 4
Well, I’ve been doing it since
4 4 4 4 4
I was a young kid,
4 4 -3 -3” 3 3
And I’ve come out grinnin’
5 5 5 5 5 5 5
Well, I fight authority,
5 5 4 4 -3 -3 -4
Authority always wins

Verse 2:
4 4 4 4 4 4 4
So I call up my preacher
4 4 4 4 -3 -3” 3 3
I say, “Give me strength for round five”
-3 -4 5 5 5 5 5
He said , “You don’t need no strength,
4 4 4 -3 -4 -4
You need to grow up son”
4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4
I said, “Growing up leads to growing old
-3 -3 -3” 3 3
And then to dying
5 5 5 5 5 5 5
And dying to me don’t sound
4 -3 -3 -3 -4
Like all that much fun”
4 4 4
So I say

(Chorus)

4 4 5 5 -4 4 4 4
I say Oh no no no
4 4 5 5 4 4
I say Oh no no no
4 4 5 5 4 4 -4
I say Oh no no no no

Repeat Chorus 3 times
Fading out on last time
