(ver. 1)
The Police
[Intro]
G5  D  G5   D  C
 
G5  D  G5   D  C
 
G5  D  G5   D  C
 
G5  D  G5   D  C
 
[Verse 1]
C              D
When you reach number ten
          G5           D
And think the struggle ends
C            G5     D
But it ain't the end
     G5        C
It's only a trend
 
[Chorus]
A5     C5     D5
You have to unbend
       A5   C5      D5
'Cause it's only a trend
    G5  A5   C5       D5
Don't    lose all your friends
    G5  A5  D5
Don't make heroes end
 
[Verse 2]
            D5    G5     D         G5             D
When you reach number eight it ain't no pearly gate
   C        G5       D            G5       D
'Cause it won't satiate your growing appetite
C           G5      D    G5           D   C
You can ply your trade and push your crusade
 G5     D     G5     D   C      A5
Emancipate or indoctrinate, but the
 C5            D5      A5  C5       D5
Traps are all laid for and honest crusade
 G5  A5  C5         D5   G5  A5   C5 G5
Your old values will fade as you struggle to make the grade
 
[Bridge]
F5     G5   D5                   G5
     As you struggle to make the grade
                                D5 F5 G5 D5 Fsus2 G5 D
(As you struggle to make the grade)
   G5        D       G5    D
(You needn't bother)
 
[Verse 3]
C             G5         D           G5            D
When you hit number four you're almost through the door
       C             G5     D        G5     D    C
But there's a whole lot more you just can't ignore
    G5                D        C
The telephone's sure, you know the score
G5                 D          G5            D    C
But don't let this uproar dissipate your encore
 
[Chorus]
A5       C5             D5   A5        C5        D5
    It's written in the news   how you paid your dues
         G5    A5      C5      D5    A5   C5 D5
But you've          no excuse      for the people you abuse
 
[Verse 4]
        D5         G5    D         G5       D    C
When you reach number one you can beat your drum
            G5           D    G5       D   C
You can sack your roadies    in Birmingham
     G5             D         G5               D      C
When your record is platinum, you can stick it to the bath
G5          D           G5            D   C
To the wall like you've always planned
 
[Chorus]
A5       C5             D5   A5        C5        D5
    It's written in the news   how you paid your dues
         G5    A5      C5      D5   A5   C5  D5
But you've          no excuse      for the people you abuse
 
[Outro]
D5    F5   G5   D5    F5   G5
 
D5    F5   G5   D5    F5   G5
 
D5    F5   G5   D5    F5   G5
 
D5    F5   G5   D5    F5   G5
 
D5    F5   G5   D5    F5   G5
