As far as i can tell, it's just the same four chords for the whole song, with the
loudness increasing throughout. Enjoy.

Intro (accoustic + accordion)
C G Bm7 Em (x2)

(accoustic only)

C G
Why didn't you come when I beat my drum
Bm7 Em
And screamed off my head out into the night
C G
Scared of the slums, afraid of the guns
Bm7 Em
Don't wanna see the hoodlums fight

C G
Hey hey hey, na na na na
Bm7 Em
Don't wanna see the hoodlums fight

C G
I was gonna come when I heard your drum
Bm7 Em
And you screamed your head off into the night

I grew up around different part of town
Bm7 Em
But even the universes collide

There was no letter No family matter
Bm7 Em
And by the castas we don't divide

It's just father told me tonight authorities
Bm7 Em
Preparing ethno-cleansing ride

C G
Hey hey hey, na na na na
Bm7 Em
Preparing ethno-cleansing ride
C G
Hey hey hey, na na na na
Bm7 Em
Preparing ethno-cleansing ride

Two helicopters with machine guns
Bm7 Em
Over the slums proudly will glide

So when the universes collide

Son, don't get caught on the wrong side!
