[Am][Eb][Am][F#m][F]
[Am][Eb][Bb][Am]
[F#5][F][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]A scowl across my face
We travel before they're suc[Eb]cessful
[Am]We, [G]the African princes,
come [Am]toilet cleaners
We, the tired Polish whores
[Eb]We, the Indian liars,
come [G]security [Eb]guards[E]
[Am]We, disgruntled English
forced out of jobs once secure
A [Eb]big fuck you to our first colleagues
[G]two decades before
[Am]All together knackered,
all together now
We'll [Eb]walk these roads forever,
[G]fucking hell
[C]One [F]day we [Eb]will [F]be [Am]successful
In father's eyes of failure
and drunk of fall
One [Eb]day I'll photograph the
tired [G5]early [G]in the morn
One [Am]day a bacon sandwich
won't seem a luxury
Star[Eb]bucks an irresponsible
indul[G]gence to me
An[Eb]d I will return one day to white
[G]sheets and clean carpets
I'll [C]return successful to [F]my palace
Give a [Eb]shit and flip crumbs on the [G]floor
[C]One [F]day we will [Eb5]be suc[F]cessful
[C]One [Bb]day [F]we'll [Eb]suc c[F]eed[Am]
[Eb][G]
[Am][Eb][G][G5]
[Eb]And I will return one day to white s[G5]heets
[G]And clean carpets I'll [C]return
Successful to [F]my palace
Give a [Eb]shit, the flip -flops on the [G]floor[C]
One [F]day we will [Eb]be s[Bb]uccessfu[F]l
[C]One [F]day we'll [Eb]suc [F]ceed
[C]One [F]day we will be successful
[C]One [F]day we'll [Eb]suc [F]ceed
I [C]am angry and hateful at
[Bb]the Romanian Christian
coming [Am]over [Eb]here taking
[Bb]Englishmen's jobs
An[F]d then he shares his
vegan lunch with me
[C]and I [Cm]feel even [C]worse
