          F                   A#
Tell me true, tell me why was Jesus crucified?
C                    C7    F
Is it for this that daddy died?
        F
Was it you? Was it me?
       A#
Did I watch too much T.V.?
           C                          F
Is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?

       F
If it wasn't for the Nips
F7        A#
Being so good at building ships,
     C                                 F
The yards would still be open on the Clyde
                              F7
And it can't be much fun for them
  A#
Beneath the rising sun
     C                             F
With all their kids committing suicide

              A#                        F
What have we done, Maggie what have we done?
              A#
What have we done to England?

C           F                 A
Should we shout, should we scream,
       A#      A#m                F  Dm7
"What happened to the post war dream?"
Gm7       C7
Oh, Maggie,
                     F   C A# F
Maggie what have we done?
