[Intro]
G G/F# Em C D G
G G/F# Em C D G


[Verse 1]
                 G      G/F#       Em
Well I'm not cool enough for Camden
     C     D          G
I guess by now that's clear
              G       G/F#       Em
And I'm not folk enough for Whitby
             C     D      G
'Cause I can never grow a beard
                 G      G/F#        Em
And I could be sad enough for country
           C      D       G
But I'm no good at being drunk
           G         G/F#      Em
I tried to be a protest singer and found out
        C    D           G
I'm too middle class for punk


[Chorus 1]
   D
Oh mama, I'm a
C             G            D
Revolutionary in the wrong time
        Em          D            C
And the world ain't changing for me
C                         G          D
I heard a rumor there was power in a union
    Em       D     C
But that was yesterday        (she sings the 'day' as 'dee')
               Em
Now I'm just a pop singer without the looks
   D
An activist without the books
    G       G/F#       C
And when my faith fell short
        Am          C
I tried selling out
           G       D Em C
But nobody bought
       G      D Em C
Nobody bought


[Verse 2]
        G       G/F#         Em
I'm not cool enough for Ireland
  C        D       G
I guess I'll never be
             G       G/F#         Em
And I'm not rock enough for Roughtrade
            C         D        G
And, baby, that's just fine by me
            G        G/F#        Em
I could be cross enough for stand-up
            C      D     G
But I've no timing for a joke
            G        G/F#     Em
I guess one day I'll just accept
           C     D         G
I'll never be on Cambridge Folk


[Chorus 2]
   D
Oh mama, I'm a
C             G            D
Revolutionary in the wrong time
        Em          D            C
And the world ain't changing for me
C                         G          D
I heard a rumor there was power in a union
    Em       D     C
But that was yesterday        (she sings the 'day' as 'dee')
               Em
Now I'm just a pop singer without the looks
    D
Who never understood the books
   G   G/F#        C
On neo-marxists' thoughts
        Am          C
I tried selling out
           G      D Em C
And nobody bought
       G      D Em C
Nobody bought


[Instrumental]
G D Em C
G D Em C


[Chorus 3]
   D
Oh mama, I'm a
C             G            D
Revolutionary in the wrong time
        Em          D        C
And the world ain't changing tonight
C                         G          D
I heard a rumor there was power in a union
    Em        D     C
And that used to be right
       Em
When I never understand the books
    D
I'd sooner go and write the hooks
       G        G/F#     C
That's when you know you ought
       Am          C
To try selling out
           G       D Em C
But nobody bought
       G       D Em C
Nobody bought
       G       D Em C
Nobody bought
       G       D C
Nobody bought
