WAT TYLER - Sivert Høyem
Intro: E5
E5
You may have seen Wat Tyler
E5 A5
When they threw him down below
E5
And the peasant men, all twenty thousand of them
G5 D5 E5
Were undone then in one blow
(Chorus)
E5 D5 C5 E5
And you may have seen them holler
D5 C5 B5-Hm5
And you may have seen them run
E5
On that fateful day, as the old books say
G5 D5 E5
That the good and the mighty won
E5
Up rode young King Richard
E5 A5
With a look so sly and cold
E5
–God is mustering his clouds on our behalf
G5 D5 E5
To strike at your children yet unborn
(Chorus)
E5 D5 C5 E5
And you will remain in bondage
D5 C5 B5-Hm5
Even harsher than before
E5
You wretches of men throughout the land
G5 D5 E5
Who will seek equality with your lords
E5
Hear then brave Wat Tyler
E5 A5
And the preacher mad John Ball
E5
–It is from our labour
G5 D5 E5
That they have the wherewithal
(Chorus)
E5 D5 C5 E5
To support their pomp and splendor
D5 C5 B5-Hm5
While we get nothing from them at all
E5
But our meal of rye and water
G5 D5 E5
And the refuse of the straw

E5 mange ganger...
E5
If someone tries to tame you
E5 A5
And to make of you their slave
E5
And if you have no means to get the better of them
G5 D5 E5
Then at least try to misbehave
(Chrous)
E5 D5 C5 E5
And you may have seen them holler
D5 C5 B5-Hm5
And you may have seen them run
E5
On that fateful day, as the old books say
G5 D5 E5
That the good and the mighty won
E5 D5 C5 E5
And you may have seen them holler
D5 C5 B5-Hm5
And you may have seen them run
E5
On that fateful day, as the old books say
G5 D5 E5
That the good and the mighty won
