Pink Floyd - Southampton Dock (Waters)
FThey disembarked in 45,
BbAnd no-one spoke and no-one smiled
CThere were to many spaces in the liFne.
Gathered at the cenotaph
BbAll agreed with the hand on heart,
CTo sheath the sacrificial kniveFs.
But now she Fstands upon Southampton dock
With her Bbhandkerchief
And her summer frock Cclings
To her wet body in the raiFn.
In quiet desperation knuckles
BbWhite upon the slippery reins
She Cbravely waves the boys goodbye agaFin.
Mm__Bb____. Bbm F
BbAnd still the dark stain spreads between
His Fshoulder blades.
BbA mute reminder of the Fpoppy fields and graves. F7 Gm7
F7 Bb C Dm7 C7/E
And when the fight was over
We Fspent what Am7they had Dmmade.
But Gm7in the bottom of our hearts
We felt the final Fcut.
