Whitewash by Gary Fitzpatrick
From the album 'Judas Steer' by The Great Western Squares.

Turn the clock back, start anew,
G        Em          C        G  
Paint a whitewash on the past.
Em      Am               D 
Take a step back, change the view,
G       Em         C          G
Tie your colours to the mast.
Em       Am             G


And I think I know just what you mean to me
G      Em                Am                G  
But it's taken far to long for me to see
G         Em           Am              G
For I couldn't tell the forest from the trees
G       Em               Am                G     
And I think I know just what you mean to me.
G       Em               Am               G


Comprehension came too late
G          Em   C       G
Dream of pleasures that are lost
Em        Am                 D
Hesitation, count the cost
G       Em     C        G
Add them all to bear this cross
Em        Am                G



And I think I know just what you mean to me
G      Em                Am                G  
But it's taken far to long for me to see
G         Em           Am              G
For I couldn't tell the forest from the trees
G       Em               Am                G     
And I think I know just what you mean to me.
G       Em               Am               G

Every moment of every day
Em               G 
Seems to take so very long
Am                     Em
Every second your away
G             Em
Drags like an eternity
Am
Tussles when your gone.
Em                 D


Turn the clock back, change the date
G         Em           C         G   
Join the circle don't be late
Em        Am              D
No solution , no escape
G        Em    C     G
Add them all to hesitate
Em       Am          G



And I think I know just what you mean to me
G      Em                Am                G  
But it's taken far to long for me to see
G         Em           Am              G
For I couldn't tell the forest from the trees
G       Em               Am                G     
And I think I know just what you mean to me.
G       Em               Am               G
