Bm                                     F#m
They started work this morning down at city square
        E                               F#m
they're pulling down the statues of our great grandfather's hero
    Bm                             F#m
the new books say he wasn't such a great man after all
    E                        F#m
and anyway remember that the times they are a-changing.

        Bm            A
Pull it down, drag it down
        G             A
drag it down, pull it down
             Bm              A
till there's nothing to look up to
        G                  F#m         Bm
but the brand names on the posters all around.

Bm                                   F#m
They proved on television last night god was just a lie
   E                                  F#m
he never made the world at all it was just some sweet old-fashioned rite
   Bm                           F#m
so melt down all the ornaments, move out all the graves
    E                               F#m
and let us build the discos that we need for our young 'braves'.

        Bm            A
Pull it down, drag it down
        G             A
drag it down, pull it down
         Bm                  A
till the hopes and dreams of all
         G        F#m              Bm
the ages past are shattered on the ground.

   Bm              C
We think we are so clever
        Am             C
killing heroes, killing magic
     Bm                C
till everything that's sacred
           Am          C
is brought down to our level
    Bm          C
for Mammon is a jealous master
Am                 C
leaves no room for any other
Bm                C
all the questions left unanswered
Am              C
all the answers gone forever.
Bm                         C
So bow to the woman in the finest fur
Am                      C
bow to the man with the ace street cool
Bm                    C
bow to the woman with all the power
Am                  C
bow to the man with all the money.

   Bm                 C
In whose sight are we equal now?
   Am                 C
in whose sight are we equal now?
   Bm                 C
in whose sight are we equal now?
   Am                 C
in whose sight are we equal now?
F                     Bm
Now that we've killed god
F                     Bm
now that we've killed god

                                <  this transition may sound weird,
     F#m                   E    <  but i've played it like this for so
                      (oh, now  <  long that i don't know if it's really
                  F#            <  what they play or if it's just me
that we've killed god)          <  who made it up (it sounds nice to me)

        Bm            A
Pull it down, drag it down
        G             A
drag it down, pull it down
             Bm              A
till there's nothing to look up to
        G                  F#m            Bm
but the brand names on the posters on the walls

[         Bm            A
  Pull it down, drag it down
          G             A
  drag it down, pull it down
           Bm                  A
  till the hopes and dreams of all
           G        F#m              Bm
  the ages past are shattered on the ground  ]

NOTE:
S. Flack ([email protected]) suggested that the chorus
   sounds better if you use  D - C - Bm - A - Bm.
