[Intro]
 
B/A B B/A B B/A B B/A B
 
[Verse]
     B                          A
It's Open Day at my old school
                              B
I went along with a couple of friends
        B
And the money they raised
           B               A
Wasn't for swimming pools
                                      B
Oh the money was for paper, books and pens
 
[Chorus]
          E                      A
There are cutthroats, crooks and conmen
E            B
Running this jail
         C#m               E
Is there anything left in England
                B
That's not for sale?

[Verse]
            B
Out on the playing fields
        B            A
Rows of houses stand
                             B
Orange lights bleach out the dark
         B
When the nets came down
            B              A
They had to sell the land
                                 B
There's a supermarket out in the park
 
[Chorus]
          E                      A
I see cutthroats, crooks and conmen
E            B
Running this jail
         C#m               E
Is there anything left in England
                B
That's not for sale?

[Bridge]
    E
But in whose name was laid that curse
A                                     B          E
Fix the price and hide the worth from public eyes
E                  A
Our mines, phones, water, health
                       B
And everything else we used to own
     C#m             E
It's on the shelf in England
                 B
And it's up for sale
 
[Verse]
      B                                A
I see worn out trains on rusting track
                             B
Left behind from the days of steel
     B
It's too late now, we can never go back
A                                   B
Seems like sometimes we've sold the dreams
 
[Chorus]
          E                      A
I see cutthroats, crooks and conmen
E            B
Running this jail
         C#m               E
Is there anything left in England
         C#m               E
Is there anywhere left in England
         C#m               E
Is there anyone left in England
                B
That's not for sale?

[Outro]
     B             A    E
It's going Oh it's going
              B              A     E
You know it's going. Oh it's going,
                            B
It'll be too late when it's gone
