Tuning = Standard


They disembarked in 45
And no one spoke and no one smiled
There were too many spaces in the line

And gathered at the cenotaph,  All agreed with hand on heart

    too sheath the sacrificial knives

But now
She stands upon Southampton Dock


  with her handkerchief,  and her summer frock
G|---------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------|
E|---------6-----------------------------------|


  clings to her wet body in the rain
G|-----------------------------------|

  In quiet desperation knuckles,  white upon the slippery reins
G|--------------------------------------------------------------|

  She bravely waves the boys goodbye again

  Mmmmmmmmmmm

      A mute reminder of the poppy fields and graves

            when the fight was over

  We spent what they had made,  but   in the bottom of our hearts we felt the final cut
