Here Come The People In Grey

C7

C7
I got a letter this morning with some serious news
That's gone and ruined my day
    F7
The borough surveyor's used compulsory purchase
C7
To acquire my domain
              G7
They're gonna pull up the floors
        F7
They're gonna knock down the walls
              C7
They're gonna dig up the drains

C7
Here come the people in grey
They're gonna take me away to Lord knows only where
        F7
But I'm so unprepared
                               C7
I got no time to pack and I've got nothing to wear
              G7        F7
Here come the people in grey
           C7
To take me away

C7
Me and my baby gonna get on a train
That's gonna take us away
F7
I'm gonna live in a tent
We're gonna pay no more rent
      C7
We're gonna pay no more rates
            G7
We're gonna live in a field
            F7                       C7
We're gonna buy me a gun to keep the policemen away

          C7
I'm gonna pass me a brand new resolution
I'm gonna fight me a one man revolution, some way
      F7                   C7
Gonna beat those people in grey
                  G7        F7
But here come the people in grey
           C7
To take me away

              G7        F7
Here come the people in grey
           C7
To take me away

    C7
The people in grey have gone and taken away
My right to voice my complaint
    F7
Her Majesty's Government have sent me a form
       C7
I must complete it today
         G7
But it's making me blue
            F7
Don't wanna tell all my secrets to
              C7
The people in grey

      C7
Gonna pass me a brand new resolution
Gonna fight me a one man revolution, someway
      F7                 C7
Gonna start my rebellion today
    G7                      F7
But here come the people in grey
           C7
To take me away

C7  F7                    C7
Oh, Lord, those people in grey
        F7                          C7
I gotta get back at those people in grey**
     F7                 G7
Here come the people in grey
           C7
To take me away

are a couple of extra words in this line that
I cannot make out and which also do not appear
in any of the published lyrics that I've found.
