  or just to write to me e-mail me at ramaral@net.em.com.br

            

  

  Verse 1:(Use rock riffs)

  (3x)A  - C#m -  D -   E    (1x)  C#m  - D - B  - A 

  E------------------------------------------------------

  B------------------------------------------------------

  G--------6-6---7-7---9-9---------6-6---7---4----2-2-2--

  D--7-7---6-6---7-7---9-9---------6-6---7---4----2-2-2--

  A--7-7---4-4---5-5---7-7---------4-4---5---2----0-0-0--

  E--5-5-------------------------------------------------

  

  A          C#m            D         E

  Haji was a punk just like any other boy

          A            C#m              D             E

  And he never had no trouble until he started up his Oi band,

  A           C#m       D              E

  safe in the garage or singing in the tub.

       C#m          D    B     A

  Till Haji went to far and he plugged in at the pub

  A              C#m                D              E

  It was a cold Christmas eve when Trevor and the skins

         A        C#m         D              E

  popped in for a pint and to nick a back of crisps

  

  Second part of the verse:(Play only the notes):

    A -G#- F#-E -F#-E-  D- C#- D  - B - A-  B  - A

  E--------------------------------------------------

  B--------------------------------------------------

  G--------------------------------------------------

  D--------------------------------------------------

  A----------------------5--4---5---2---0---2---0----

  E--5--4---2--0--2--0-------------------------------

  

  Trevor liked the music but not the Unity

  So he unwound Haji's turban and knocked him to his knees

  

  Chorus:(rock riffs)

  

     D                 E

  If god came down on Christmas Day

    A            F#m

  I know exactly what he'd say

            C#m                 D

  He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins-

       C#m        D         A

   but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"

  

  Verse 2(play ska riffs)

      A - C#m- D  - E

  E--5-5--4-4--5-5--7-7---------

  B--5-5--5-5--7-7--9-9---------

  G--6-6--6-6--7-7--9-9---------

  D--7-7--6-6--7-7--9-9---------

  A-----------------------------

  E-----------------------------

  

  A           C#m             D               E

  Haji was a bloody mess, he ran out thru the crowd

  A              C#m               D              E

  he said "we'll meet again we are bloody but not unbowed"

  

  Second Part of the verse(same)

  

  Trevor called his bluff and told him where to meet

  Christmas day on the roof down 20 Oxford street

  

  (Repeat chorus)

  

  Verse(same as verse 2)

  

  On the roof with the nun chucks Trevor broke a lot of bones

  But Haji had a sword like that guy in Indiana Jones

  Police sirens wailing, a bloody dying man,

  Haji was alone and abandoned his band

  Trevor was there fading and still so full of hate

  when the skins left him there and went down the fire escape

  

  Verse(same as verse 1)

  

  But then Haji saw the north star shining more then ever

  So he made a tourniquet from his turban saving Trevor

  the repelled down the roof with the rest of the turban

  and went back to the pub where they bought each other bourbon

  

  (Repeat Chorus)
