The Kinks - Rats: chords

       E                             G
I was lost just wandering round downtown
                              A
Many people were pushing me around
        C          D      A     G F#m E D E
Hate spreads just like infection
       E                          G
Those rats jumping on and off my back
                           A
Fat black rats holding me down
       C      D
I see rats in every direction

Chorus:
A        G  F#m    E    D E
No time to catch your breath
A      G     F#m    E     D E E
Crazy people lost their  heads
 D      C#   D   C#  D   E E
Masses trampling on my feet,
D   C#  D    C#    D     E
inconsiderate in their heat

Those rats breeding angriness and spite
Never have done anything right
For people like you and me
Walk over all the people you can't see
If they die there's more bread for me
Like snakes crawling through the grass

Chorus

Those rats breeding angriness and spite
Never have done anything right
For people like you and me

See that face man look at me
Oh, he's too selfish to see
Once he was warm and was kind
Now all he's got is a pinstripe mind
See that face man look at me
Oh, he's too selfish to see
Once he was warm and was kind
Now he's got is a pinstripe mind
