Matilda The Musical - School Song Chords

[Intro]
N.C.
Oi, New Kids
 
[Chorus]
                        Dm
And So you think you're A-ble [able]
                        Bb
To survive this mess by B-ing [being]
                                      Dm
A prince or a princess, you will soon C [see],
              A           Dm
There's no escaping trage-D [tragedy].
     Dm
And E-ven [even]
                       Bb
If you put in heaps of F-ort [effort],
                         Dm
You're just wasting ener-G [energy],
                                   Am                   Dm
'Cause your life as you know it is H-ent [ancient] history.
Gm
I
                      Dm
Have suffered in this J-ail [jail].
                              Am
I've been trapped inside this K-ge [cage] for ages,
            A
This living h-L [hell],
                      Gm
But If I Try I Can Rem-M-ber [remember],
                         Dm
Back before my life had N-ded [ended],
                          Am
Before my happy days were O-ver [over],
                         A                       Dm
Before I first heard the P-ling [pealing] of the bell...
               Bb
Like you I was Q-rious [curious],
              F
So innocent I R-sked [asked] a thousand questions,
       A
But, unl-S [unless] you want to suffer,
                     A7
Listen up and I will T-ch [teach] you a thing or two.
Gm
U [you], listen here, my dear,
                        Dm
You'll be punished so se-V-rely [severely] if you step out of line,
                          A7
And if you cry it will be W [double, you] should stay out of trouble,
                   A
And remember to be X-tremely [extremely] careful.
