We'll be fighting in the streets, with our children at our feet,
A baritone chordA D baritone chordD E baritone chordE
and the morals that they worship will be gone.
A baritone chordA D baritone chordD A baritone chordA D baritone chordD
And the men who spurred us on sit in judgement of all wrong,
A baritone chordA D baritone chordD E baritone chordE G baritone chordG D baritone chordD
they decide and the shotgun sings the song.

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

take a bow for the new revolution,

smile and grin at the change all around,

take up my guitar and play

just like yesterday,

and I'll get on my knees and pray.

--- We don't get fooled again.


The change it had to come, we knew it all along,
we were liberated from the fold, that's all.
And the world looks just the same, and history ain't changed,
'cause the banners were all flown in the last war.

Nothing in the street looks any different to me.
And the slogans are replaced by the by,
and the parting on the left is now parting on the right,
and the beards have all grown longer over night.

Same as the old boss.

I'm guessing ukulelegirl1 is long gone, but this is a great job of taking a who production into a uke song! The Who has a lot of great songs, but they also like to do hour long instrumentals. Playing their songs on the uke demonstrates their quality.

About this song: Won't Get Fooled Again

"Won't Get Fooled Again" is a song by the rock band The Who. Written by Pete Townsend, it combines guitar power chords with heavily processed organ and synthesizer sounds to create a textured, atmospheric introduction that explodes into the verse. It tells of a "revolution of revolutions" in an endless cycle, where "the change it had to come, we knew it all along" but each successive new regime turns out to be just like the old one, so that straight away it's time once again to "pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday, then I'll get on my knees and pray we don't get fooled again".
