Tell me true, tell me why was Jesus crucified?
Is it for this that daddy died?
Bb/F FWas it you? Was it me?
BbDid I watch too much T.V.?
Is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?
FIf it wasn't for the Nips
F7 BbBeing so good at building ships,
The yards would still be open on the Clyde.
F7And it can't be much fun for them
BbBeneath the rising sun
With all their kids committing suicide.
Bb FWhat have we done, Maggie what have we done?
BbWhat have we done to England?
Should we shout, should we scream,
Bb Bbm F/C Dm7"What happened to the post war dream?"
Gm7 C7Oh, Maggie,
Maggie what have we done?
Your Possible Pasts
G Am
They flutter behind you your possible pasts,
C D GSome brighteyed and crazy, some frightened and lost.
A warning to anyone still in command
C D GOf their possible future, to take care.
G AmIn derelict sidings the poppies entwine
With cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time.
EmDo you remember me, how we used to be,
DDo you think we shoud be closer?
G Am
She stood in the doorway, the ghost of a smile
Haunting her face like a cheap hotel sign.
G AmHer cold eyes imploring the men in their macs
C D GFor the gold in their bags or the knives in their backs.
Stepping up boldly one put out his hand.
C D GHe said, "I was just a child then, now I'm only a man."
EmDo you remember me, how we used to be,
Do you think we should be closer?
Em C Em C Em D C D Cmaj9G Am
By the cold and religious we were taken in hand
Shown how to feel good and told to feel bad.
G AmStrung out behind us the banners and flags
C D GOf our possible pasts lie in tatters and rags.
Do you remember me, how we used to be,
DDo you think we should be closer?
One Of The Few
N.C.
When you're one of the few to land on your feet,
What do you do to make ends meet?
Teach.
Make them mad, make them sad, make them add two and two.
Make them me, make them you, make them do what you want them to.
Make them laugh, make them cry, make them lie down and die.
The Hero's Return
D
Jesus, Jesus, what's it all about?
Trying to clout these little ingrates into shape.
When I was their age all the lights went out.
There was no time to whine or mope about.
Cmaj7 DAnd even now part of me flies over
Dresden at angels one five.
D Cmaj7Though they'll never fathom it behind my
DSarcasm desperate memories lie.
D
Sweetheart sweetheart are you fast asleep? Good.
'Cause that's the only time that I can really speak to you.
And there is something that I've locked away
A memory that is too painful
To withstand the light of day.
Cmaj7 D Cmaj7When we came back from the war the banners and
Flags hung on everyone's door.
Cmaj7We danced and we sang in the street and
DThe church bells rang.
But burning in my heart,
G CMy memory smoulders on
G C Em Add9Of the gunners dying words on the intercom.
The Gunner's Dream
Floating down through the clouds
Memories come rushing up to meet me now.
GIn the space between the heavens
D CAnd in the corner of some foreign field,
I had a dream,
GI had a dream.
G G+
Goodbye Max, goodbye Ma.
Em/G CAfter the service when you're walking slowly to the car
And the silver in her hair shines in the cold November air,
Em Cmaj7 D/C CYou hear the tolling bell, and touch the silk in your lapel,
G D EmAnd as the tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band,
You take her frail hand and hold on to the dream.
G G+ Em C D G D Em D C D/C G D C G Em C EmG G+
A place to stay, enough to eat,
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street.
G DWhere you can speak out loud about your doubts and fears,
EmAnd what's more no-one ever disappears,
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.
G DYou can relax on both sides of the tracks,
Em C D7/CAnd maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control,
And everyone has recourse to the law,
C G EmAnd no-one kills the children anymore.
C GNo-one kills the children anymore.
C D G D Em D
Night after night, going round and round my brain,
His dream is driving me insane___________________.
GIn the corner of some foreign field,
DThe gunner sleeps tonight.
What's done is done.
G DWe cannot just write off his final scene.
C G EmTake heed of his dream,
Take heed.
Paranoid Eyes
G C G
Button your lip and don't let the shield slip.
C GTake a fresh grip on your bullet proof mask.
And if they try to break down your disguise with their questions
G D C G/B Am D AmYou can hide, hide, hide,
GBehind paranoid eyes.
G C G
You put on our brave face and slip over the road for a jar,
Fixing your grin as you casually lean on the bar.
CLaughing too loud at the rest of the world
G D CWith the boys in the crowd.
You hide, hide, hide,
GBehind petrified eyes.
C G C G C G Em D Am G
You believed in their stories of fame, fortune and glory.
C GNow you're lost in a haze of alchohol soft middle age.
C G D CThe pie in the sky turned out to be miles too high.
And you hide, hide, hide,
Behind brown and mild eyes.
Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert
Brezhnev took Afghanistan.
Begin took Beirut.
D GGaltieri took the Union Jack.
GAnd Maggie, over lunch one day,
Took a cruiser with all hands
D GApparently to make him give it back.
C G Mm
The Fletcher Memorial Home
Take all your overgrown infants away, somewhere,
D Bb+ Bm A/C#And build them a home, a little place of their own.
D Em C D Em7 D/F# G CThe Fletcher Memorial Home for incurable tyrants and kings.
And they can appear to themselves every day,
D Bb+ Bm A/B BmOn closed circuit T.V. to make sure they're still real.
C D EmIt's the only connection they feel.
Cmaj7
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Reagan and Haig,
Mr. Begin and friend, Mrs. Thatcher and Paisley,
Cmaj7Mr. Brezhnev and party, the ghost of McCarthy,
DThe memories of Nixon. And now adding colour,
A group of anonymous Latin-American meat packing glitterati."
Did they expect us to treat them with any respect?
G D/F# CThey can polish their medals and sharpen their smiles,
G D/F# CAnd amuse themselves playing games for a while.
Boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead.
G D/F# Em D/F# G D/F# Em D Cmaj7 DG C G/B Am
Safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye,
D Bb+ BmWith their favorite toys, they'll be good girls and boys.
In the Fletcher Memorial Home for colonial wasters of life and limb.
D/F# C G D/F# C Add9Is everone in? Are you having a nice time?
D/F# C Em Add9Now the final solution can be applied.
Southampton Dock
They disembarked in 45,
BbAnd no-one spoke and no-one smiled
C FThere were to many spaces in the line.
Gathered at the cenotaph
BbAll agreed with the hand on heart,
C FTo sheath the sacrificial knives.
But now she stands upon Southampton dock
BbWith her handkerchief
CAnd her summer frock clings
To her wet body in the rain.
In quiet desperation knuckles
BbWhite upon the slippery reins
She bravely waves the boys goodbye again.
Bb Bbm FBb
And still the dark stain spreads between
FHis shoulder blades.
A mute reminder of the poppy fields and graves.
F7 Bb C Dm7 C7/EAnd when the fight was over
F Am7 DmWe spent what they had made.
But in the bottom of our hearts
FWe felt the final cut.
The Final Cut
F F/C C
Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes____
I can barely define the shape of this moment in time.
F F/C CAnd far from flying high in clear blue skies___,
Bb Add9 FI'm spiralling down to the hole in the ground where I hide.
Bb F
If you negotiate the minefield in the drive,
And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes,
Bb C DmAnd if you make it past the shotgun in the hall,
Gm7Dial the combination, open the priesthole
And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall.
There's a kid who had a big hallucination
Am CMaking love to girls in magazines.
Bb DmHe wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith.
Could anybody love him
/C F F/C C Bb Add9 FOr is it just a crazy dream___?
F C
And if I show you my dark side
Bb FWill you still hold me tonight?
And if I open my heart to you
BbAnd show you my weak side,
FWhat would you do?
Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
BbWould you take the children away
FAnd leave me alone?
And smile in reassurance
DmAs you whisper down the phone,
Gm7Would you send me packing,
Or would you take me home?
Am F Am C Bb Dm Gm7 /C FAm F
Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings,
Thought I oughta tear the curtain down.
BbI held the blade in trembling hands,
Dm Gm7Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang,
I never had the nerve to make the final cut.

Two Suns In The Sunset
D A G A DD G A
In my rear view mirror the sun is going down,
D G A DSinking behind bridges in the road
And I think of all the good things
D A GThat we have left undone
D/F# EmAnd I suffer premonitions,
Confirm suspicions,
Em A D A G AOf the holocaust to come.
D
The wire that holds the cork
G AThat keeps the anger in,
Gives way
G A DAnd suddenly it's day again.
G AThe sun is in the east
Even though the day is done.
EmTwo suns in the sunset
BmHmmmmmmmmmm
Could be the human race is run.
A D A G A D A G A DBm A
Like the moment when the brakes lock
And you slide towards the big truck
G A DYou stretch the frozen moments with your fear.
Bm AAnd you'll never hear their voices,
And you'll never see their faces,
G A D AYou have no recourse to the law anymore.
G A D A G A D
And as the windshield melts
G AMy tears eveaporate,
D G A DLeaving only charcoal to defend.
Finally I understand the feelings of the few.
EmAshes and diamonds,
BmFoe and friend,
We were all equal in the end.
