Verse 1:
     C                              F
When we were at school I thought he had it sussed
C                         G
Fighting the law with the rest of us
C                  F
Smoking, drinking, acting cool.
            G
('Til) they started treating him like a fool
        C                     F
Then he stayed on his own for most of the time
C                    G
Dreaming dreams of a life of crime
C                         F
In and out of trouble, he cheated and lied
    G
But who'd have thought he'd join the other side

Chorus: (Riff 1 x6)
          C          E  F  G
He's in a riot squad
          C          E  F  G
The wanna fight squad
             C          E  F  G
The shoot on sight squad
            C     F  G  G
For law and right

Verse 2:
C                       F
Down to Hendon with the boys in blue
      C                 G
It's amazing what a few weeks can do
C               F
Out in the car, out on the street
G
South of the river on the frontline beat

Verse 3:
D                      G
Cracking heads, it was all a game
  D                          A
A finger was pointed, and he got the blame
         D                         G
Now he's back where he started, he ain't got a pound
A
Queing with the sorts he used to kick around

Chorus x2 (up one full step)
