[Verse]
G                            Em    D What have they done to your car, Pa?
С         G               Am           D What on Earth have they done to your car?
     G             D        Em          Bm It never had a scratch and it was so intact.
               C               Em                D Now there's chickens roosting on the steering wheel, it's so unreal.

G                D          Em           D What have they done to the town, Mrs. Brown?
С         G               Am           D What on Earth have they done to the town?
          G             D        Em      Bm There's rubbish lyin' round and so run down. ***
           C            Em                      D There's shanties everywhere, they changed the name.
                                  G It's such a shame. It's such a shame.


[Chorus]
D                     GIf you wanna be a survivor.
D                                    G          DIf you need strength so you can tolerate these times.
D                     G G/F# EmIf you wanna be a survivor.
          C          D             G       Em    You carry unilateral independent state of mind.
      C           D           GYour very own U.D.I state of mind.


[Verse]
G                D           Em          D What have they done to the land, Uncle San*?
С         G               Am          D What on Earth have they done to the land?
   G             D       Em                 Bm What about the Queen? I bet she's not too keen,
     C              Em              D To visit like she did in colonial days. No ways!

G               D           Em    D What is there left here to rob, Bob?
С         G              Am           D What on Earth is there left here to rob?
             G              D            Em           Bm Since you stole the land away folks are dyin' every day.
          C                   Em            D And the world stands by and watches silently.
                               G A human tragedy, such a tragedy.


[Chorus]
    D                     GAnd if you wanna be a survivor.
D                                    G          DIf you need strength so you can tolerate these times.
D                     G G/F# EmIf you wanna be a survivor.
          C          D             G       Em    You carry unilateral independent state of mind.
      C           D           GYour very own U.D.I state of mind.


[Outro]
                 Em                  GOh we told them so, all those years ago.
                       Em                    GThey said they didn't know it would sink so low.
                 Em                    GThey're all the same in the political game.
                  Em                   GThere is much to blame and share the shame.
                  Em                     GThe world lives a lie, by just standin' by.
                        Em                EmSo keep your standards high, to carry U.D.I.
