Queen - Hammer To Fall Chords

The song is about waiting for inevitable doom or judgment, referred to as "the hammer to fall". It describes the daily deterioration of the body but urges to still "tow the line and play their game". The chorus asks "what the hell are we fighting for?" and suggests to just surrender before it's too late to pray while waiting for the hammer to fall.
