[Verse]
         Eb           Ab              Eb   Ab
I hear a gang fire on a human factory farm ■ 
                 Eb  Ab                    
Are they howling out or doing somebody harm
             Eb     Ab                  Eb 
On a catwalk jungle somebody grabbed my arm
Ab                                                 Eb   Ab
A voice spoke so cold it matched the weapon in her palm ■ 
        Eb     
This is England
Ab            Eb        Ab   
This knife of Sheffield steel
        Eb     
This is England
Fm         Eb     Ab  
■  This is how we feel
Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb

Ab          Eb    Ab                 Eb     
Time on his hands freezing all those clothes
Ab                  Eb    
He won't go for the carrot
     Ab              Eb  
They beat him by the pole
Ab         Eb  Ab                Bb  
Some sunny day confronted by his soul
Ab          Eb      Ab                      
He's out at sea too far off he can't go home
Eb      Ab     
This is England
           Eb              Ab 
What we're supposed to die for
        Eb      Ab
This is England ■ 
            Eb         
Never gonna cry no more
Ab              Eb         
Black shadow of the vincent
Ab                 Eb   Ab
Falls on a triumph line ■ 
         Eb               
I got my motorcycle jacket
        Ab              Eb  
But I'm walking all the time


[Chorus]
Ab             Eb        
South Atlantic wind blows
Ab                    
Ice from a dying creed
         Eb   
I see no glory
Ab              Eb   Ab Eb
When will we be free ■  ■ 
Ab             
This is England
       Eb               Ab   Eb
We can chain you to the rail ■ 
Fm7            
This is England
       Eb                
We can kill you in a jail

[Verse]
Ab          Eb            Ab                 
Hey British boots go kick Bengali in the head
           Eb      
Police sit watchin'
Ab                       
The newspapers bein' read
             Eb      
All death to protests
    Ab                 Eb   Ab
And after the attacker fled ■ 
             Eb        
Out come the batons and
Ab                  
The biggest one said
     Eb Ab      Eb
This is England ■ 


[Chorus]
Ab          Eb      Ab     Eb
The land of illegal dances ■ 
Fm7            
This is England
          Eb              
Land of a thousand stances
        Ab      Eb
This is England ■ 
Ab            Eb        Ab    Eb
This knife of Sheffield steel ■ 
Ab         Eb     
■  This is England
                   
This is how we feel
               
This is England
        Ab     
This is England
