Southhampton Dock Pink Floyd

[F]They disembarked in 45,

[Bb]And no-one spoke and no-one smiled

[C]There were to many spaces in the li[F]ne

Gathered at the cenotaph

[Bb]All agreed with the hand on heart,

[C]To sheath the sacrificial knive[F]s

But now she [F]stands upon Southampton dock

With her [Bb]handkerchief

And her summer frock [C]clings

To her wet body in the rai[F]n

In quiet desperation knuckles

[Bb]White upon the slippery reins

She [C]bravely waves the boys goodbye aga[F]in

Mm__[Bb]____.[Bbm] [F]

[Bb]And still the dark stain spreads between

His [F]shoulder blades

[Bb]A mute reminder of the [F]poppy fields and graves[F7] [Gm7]

[F7]And [Bb]when the fight was [C]over[Dm7] [C7/E]

We [F]spent what [Am7]they had [Dm]made

But [Gm7]in the bottom of our hearts

We felt the final [F]cut
