Southampton Dock

# #Transcrption by: Jouni A. Smed (jounsmed@utu.fi) SOUTHAMPTON DOCK Pink Floyd (Waters) F They disembarked in 45, Bb And no-one spoke and no-one smiled C F There were too many spaces in the line. Gathered at the cenotaph Bb All agreed with the hand on heart, C F To sheath the sacrificial knives. F But now she stands upon Southampton dock Bb With her handkerchief C And her summer frock clings F To her wet body in the rain. In quiet desperation knuckles Bb White upon the slippery reins C F She bravely waves the boys goodbye again. Bb Fbm Mm______. Bb And still the dark stain spreads between F His shoulder blades. Bb F Gm7 A mute reminder of the poppy fields and graves. F7 Bb C C7/E And when the fight was over F Am7 Dm We spent what they had made. Gm7 But in the bottom of our hearts F We felt the final cut. -- Updated: April 7/98
