DJesus, Jesus, what's it all about?
Trying to clout these little ingrates into shape.
When I was their age all the lights went out.
There was no time to whine or mope about.
Cmaj7 DAnd even now part of me flies over
Cmaj7Dresden at angels one five.
D Cmaj7Though they'll never fathom it behind my
DSarcasm desperate memories lie.
DSweetheart sweetheart are you fast asleep? Good.
'Cause that's the only time that I can really speak to you.
And there is something that I've locked away
A memory that is too painful
To withstand the light of day.
Cmaj7 D Cmaj7When we came back from the war the banners and
DFlags hung on everyone's door.
Cmaj7We danced and we sang in the street and
DThe church bells rang.
G CBut burning in my heart,
G CMy memory smoulders on
G C Em add9Of the gunners dying words on the intercom.
