Hitsville U.K.
(The Clash)

C  G   F   (organ)

C              F            C
They cried the tears, they shed the fears
F       C       F    G
Up and down the land
     C         F       C
They stole guitars or used guitars
        F         C      Am
So the tape would understand
F                G              C         F
Without even the slightest hope of a 1000 sales
               G                C             F
Just as if, as if there was, a hitsville in U.K.
                   C                  F         G      C
I know the boy was all alone, til the hitsville hit U.K.


C     F   C    
They say true talent 
      F        C       F  G      
Will always emerge in time
      C        F          C
When lightning hits small wonder
     F          C       Am
Its fast rough factory trade
    F                    G
No expense accounts, or lunch discounts
   C              F
Or hyping up the charts
    F                 G                   C       F
The band went in, 'n knocked 'em dead, in 2 min. 59
                    C                  F         G      C
I know the boy was all alone, til the hitsville hit U.K.

(break)C     F   C    F        C   F  G   
 C      F       C    F   C   Am
F     G   C   F     F     G    C       F  (helps if you have a xylophone)

    F                 G            C              F                 
No slimy deals, with smarmy eels - in hitsville U.K.
     F                 G            C              F   
Lets shake'n say, we'll operate - in hitsville U.K.
                      C                  F         G      C
I know the girl felt all alone, till the hitsville hit U.K.

    C         F         C
The mutants, creeps and musclemen
    F        C       F  G     
Are shaking like a leaf
   C        F          C
It blows a hole in the radio
         F             C       Am
When it hasnt sounded good all week
   F                     G           C              F
A mike'n boom, in your living room - in hitsville U.K.
       F                G       C             F
No consumer trials, or A.O.R., in hitsville U.K.
                   C                  F         G      C
I know the boy was all alone, til the hitsville hit U.K.

 
        F                  C
Now the boys and girls are not alone
        F           G     C
Now the hitsville's hit U.K.


           F                  C

        F           G     C
Now the hitsville's hit U.K.

           F                  C

        F           G     C
Now the hitsville's hit U.K.

           F                  C
