Billy Bold Hello Sailor
Born in the sigh[Em]t of the Liverpool dock[G]
[Em]Within the call of the[G] sea... was t[D]he sound
...of po[Em]verty
[Em]So they write you down on their [G]social lists
[Em]Songs of war, and girls that[G] don't exist... [D]and how
...you can't be [Em]free.
CHORUS
[Em]For yesterday, we wer[G]e ten years old
[Em]Yesterday, we were f[G]reezing cold
[Em]Yesterday, you had us [G]bought and sold... bu[D]t now...
We are Billy [Em]Bold
[Em]Must we immigrate, or [G]stand and fight?
[Em]Troubled times when w[G]e must unite... let th[D]e chains...
...that bind us [Em]free.
[Em]There's no need to shout, [G]everybody knows
[Em]It's wilted now, our [G]English rose... let[D]s stone...
...the last Bas[Em]tille
CHORUS
[Em]For yesterday, we wer[G]e ten years old
[Em]Yesterday, we were fr[G]eezing cold
[Em]Yesterday, you had us [G]bought and sold... bu[D]t now...
We are Billy Bo[Em]ld
[Em]For the battern's hard, and the [G]dungeon's cold
[Em]You black and white, you [G]young and old
[Em]Yesterday, we did[G] what we were told.[D].. but now...
...we are Billy B[Em]old
CHORUS
[Em]For yesterday, we wer[G]e ten years old
[Em]Yesterday, we were fr[G]eezing cold
[Em]Yesterday, you had us [G]bought and sold... b[D]ut now...
We are Billy B[Em]old
[Em]And you[G] hear, how the drums [Em]they roll
[Em]Street war[G], must take i[Em]t's toll
[Em]For now... We are Billy[G] Bol[Em]d
