The open Ds and A give a nice folky drone - but i'll just call the chords D C Bb from now
RE DO x4
RE DO RE DO DO SIb SIb DO RE
DO SIb SIb DO RE
RE DO RE DO
Well Dirty Davey's down the front and he's met the coppers there
DO SIb
They'll be taking you in cos they hate your skin
SIb DO RE
And he's dragged away by the hair
CHORUS
RE DO
It's a kick in the head and a prison bed
SIb DO RE
And you tell me it's the law
RE DO SIb DO
RE DO RE DO DO SIb DO RE
Well Davey's out on two weeks bail and he's down the town to score
When it all falls in and he's pinned by the chin
And they'vve rusted every floor
It's a kick in the head and a prison bed
And you tell me it's the law
Davey's down the old grey squat
And he's lying with his lass
When there's a brick through the pane
ANd he's out on the lane
With the bailiffs and the glass
It's a kick in the head and a prison bed
And you tell me it's the law
The court comes up on Monday morning and Davey's in the dock
He can't stop his tears when he gets two years
And you can't turn back the clock
It's a kick in the head and a prison bed
And you tell me it's the law
REEL break - easy to bash through using the same 3 chords
SLOW
RE DO
Well Davey's had it up to here
RE DO
Banging his head on the wall
DO SIb DO
So he tied his pants to the prison bars
Bb C D (1,2,3,4)
And he's hung till he's clear of it all
It's a kick in the head and a prison bed
And you tell me it's the law
There's a law for the rich and a law for the poor
And a law for Dirty Davey
His body's gone but his soul lives on
Here's to you Dirty Davey
Its Corrupt, corrupt from the bottom to the top
And you tell me it's the law
