VERSE
 
D           G                                            C
Are you threatened by words from an empire of money and gold?
 
            G                                                        D
Will you trade in your country's potential for the lies you've been sold?
 
           G                                                      C
Are you scared that the walls are too high to be breeched by the bold?
 
           G                      D                          G
Will you stand and be counted or shut up and do what you're told?
 
 
CHORUS
 
 D        G               C
Hope over fear don't be afraid
 
         G                                              D
Tell Westminster Tories that Scotland's no longer your slave
 
        G                      C
Carpe diem, will you seize the day
 
          G                      D                          G      D
Rip the chains from the unicorn show them that Scotland is brave
 
 
VERSE
 
        G                                                 C
Did the TV man call you a Nationalist for rejecting the lies?
 
          G                                                  D
Are the words of a few worth a bob coz they wear shirts and ties?
 
           G                                                  C
When they tell you that Scotland's no great are you really surprised?
 
           G                         D                        G       D
Will you stand and be counted for something that money can't buy?

        G                       C
Carpe diem, will you seize the day
 
          G                        D                          G     D

Are you happy that nuclear weapons are dumped on the Clyde?
 
          G                                              D
Fighting wars for the wealth of the few, how many have died?
 
          G                                          C
You can bury my bones but the truth of it can't be denied

         G                                             D
And the tax payer funded MP's tell you just tell them no, no
 
         G                                             C
But in Manchester, Nottingham, Sheffield they already know
