Southampton Dock

Pink Floyd

   F
1. They disembarked in 45
   B
   and no one spoke and no one smiled
         C                           F
   There were too many spaces in the line
   F
   Gathered at the cenotaph
   B
   All agreed with the hand on heart
   C                         F
   To sheath the sacrificial knifes

*: But now...
   
   F
2. She stands upon Southampton dock
            B
   with her handkerchief and her summer frock
   C                             F
   Clings to her wet body in the rain
   F
   In quiet desperation knuckles
   B
   white upon the slippery reins
       C                              F
   She bravely waves the boys goodbye again

   B Bmi F
   
   B                                     
3. And still the dark stain spreads
              F C F           C F
   between her shoulder blades
   B                     F C F                         
   A mute reminder of the
                          C F
   poppy fields and graves
       B                  C       
   And when the fight was over
      F          C        B
   we spent what they had made              
   But... in the bottom of our hearts
                     F
   we felt the final cut.
