A5 Though the cold does touch my arm , C5 G5 I turn to face the fire on telly. G5 A generation with our hands in blood, C5 Like all the generations gone before, A5 And though we thought we learnt our lessons, C5 G5 It seems we learnt them too well. A5 C5 G5 So darling share this wine with me.

[ (FILL #3) G5 (FILL #3) C (FILL #3) A5 C5 G5 ] G5 I think I must have seen a thousand films C5 Where all the boys come back from Vietnam A5 And when they said they'd purged their conscience, C5 For a second I thought they meant it. G5 So in the congress hear them plead, C5 And try and carve their words in history A5 Though we all fear the loss of life, C5 G5 Our leaders fear the rise in global petrol prices. A5 C5 G5 So darling share this wine with me. A5 C5 G5 We'll be together on the eve of World War III E5 And will the children that have grown so high C5 G5 C5 In the back of our minds - slip through or fingers like oil.

The chords for the extended chorus at the end are possibly wrong - If anyone finds something wrong, tell me - I want to play it right too. As far as the 'solo'(if thats what you'd call it) goes, don't hasle too much about the D note running through it. If you're playing in a group, it won't be missed (in fact, I don't think TOSAW worry about it much when they play it live anyway). Otherwise you can just get the bass to play - probably best. Chords: D(group) consists of D5 D5 D5 (9 fr.) D5 -INTRO D5 C5 (9 fr.) G5 C(9) D(group) D(group) Let's not forget last night, C (9 fr.) (Yeah) how we drove along the Yarra, G5 C5 (9 fr.)

While we held hands at the Taj, G5 C5 (9 fr.) D(group) We've been stuck in a cave with that bloke who says 'Oi Am', D5 And when I cried for my cruel heart, C (9 fr.) You rubbed my back 'til I felt better, G5 C5 (9 fr.) D5 D5 We ate bread on the lake and yearned for the seasons. D5 (9 fr.) D5 G5 You are the tunes in my head, C5 (9 fr.) D5 D5 The fire in my ribs, .

A5 C5 D5 I saw the anger in your smile, C5 A5 I felt your hate still burn on naked flesh, C5 D5 I saw you swear upon your lie, C5 A5 C5 D5 A5 C5 D5 I kissed the scars and they have burned my lips. A5 C5 D5 A5 C5 D5 C5 D5 C5 You say you've seen it all, D5 C5 But what can you show, A5 C5 D5 A5 C5 D5 A5 C5 D5 You've got you're hate, A5 C5 D5 Wrapped around you.

I'm not a great fan of this song, so I haven't put too much work into transcribing it - sorry if you do like it. G5 Well I wander round this mind amidst the G5 Ruins of a lonely child, G5 I used to think I talked with spirits G5 Now I think I talk with crooks, G5 And I wonder if I ever did G5 Anything good at all. G5 Ever. G5 So I lie awake at night and vow G5 I'm not going to think about. C5 G5 I've got self deception tattooed like a flag across my back, C5 G5 Holding hands with war-mongers I feel I've been betrayed, C5 G5 Though I dance in luxury without her I'll die of thirst, C5 G5 She's a single perfect raindrop, C5 When she falls she takes my breath away. G5 Well I advertise the scars of middle classness G5 Like a shiny piece of junkmail, G5 I've inherited the meanness G5 Like a dinnerset kept for family gatherings, G5 But she will scream and tell me all the G5 Magic in her magic life, G5 We will laugh at how I'm scared of G5 Everything that moves lest it crash G5 Into me or with me in it. C5 G5 I've got self deception tattooed like a flag across my back, C5 G5 Holding hands with war-mongers I feel I've been betrayed, C5 G5 Though I dance in luxury without her I'll die of thirst, C5 G5 She's a single perfect raindrop, C5 When she falls she takes my breath away. C5 G5 Ah ..... What a dissapointment this would all be C5 Ah ..... What a dissapointment. C5 G5 'Cause I've got self deception tattooed like a flag across my back, C5 G5 Holding hands with war-mongers I feel I've been betrayed, C5 G5 Though I dance in luxury without her I'll die of thirst, C5 G5 She's a single perfect raindrop, C5 When she falls she takes my breath away. ********************************************************************** IN OUR HOME ~~ ~~~ ~~~~ Things of Stone and Wood The intro isn't definitive, it's just a guide - I usually play it different every time.
