[Intro]
D# G# Bdim C-7 A# G#
[Verse]
D# G7/B
Although many contend
G# Bdim
You may find hope ascend
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
To mark just how everything changes
D# G7/B
Whether the temperature highs
G# Bdim
Or the sea level rising
G# A# G#
It's all going up but the wages
D# G7/B
And murdered reporters
G# Bdim
And talk of hard borders
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
Sky-bound as a heavenly choir
Cm7 Gaug/B
Or the stock price in Boeing
A# G7
The screams of the dying
Fm7 G#
Or the skies over Yemen last night
[Chorus]
D# G7/B G# Bdim
It's all going up but the wages
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
And maybe it's time
D# G7/B G# Bdim
It's all going up but the wages
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
And maybe it's time
[Verse 2]
D# G7/B
Don't mention the rent
G# Bdim
Or the money that's spent
Cm7 A# G#
Keeping the banks in good health
D# G7/B
Or ridiculous claims
G# Bdim
Or the level of blame
Cm7 A# G#
Pointed to anything else
D# G7/B
And preachy musicians
G# Bdim
And those stuck in prison
Cm7 A# G#
With scarcely enough for a blunt
Cm7 A#
Or the pressure of blood
G# Bdim
That new hotel in the hood
G# Fm D#
With an oligarch's name on the front
[Chorus]
D# G7/B G# Bdim
It's all going up but the wages
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
And maybe it's time
D# G7/B G# Bdim
It's all going up but the wages
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
And maybe it's time
Cm7 G7/B A# Bdim
It's all going up with the bump in the heating bills
D# A# G#
Even though the city's on fire
D# G7/B G# Bdim
It's all going up but the wages
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
And maybe it's time
[Bridge]
Fm/C A#/D G#/D#

D# G7/B G# Bdim
It's all going up but the wages
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
And maybe it's time
Cm7 G7/B A# Bdim
It's all going up with the bump in the heating bills
D# A# G#
Even though the city's on fire
D# G7/B G# Bdim
It's all going up but the wages
Cm7 D#7/A# G#
And maybe it's time
