A/E Faug There's a brown shirt swapped for a thin blue tie F#m A7/G There's a black truth swapped for a thin blue lie D F#7-13 There's a slim man sporting a clean cut dream Bm7 G#7-13 There's a slim man courting a wide extreme C#m7 F#13 There's a fly-blown flag in a dry-bone town Bm7 E There will be no ships because they've all gone downinterlude G#m7 G13 There are questions asked in the house tonight Cmaj7 F#7-13 There's a wife been involved in a pillow fight Dmaj7 G#7-13 There's a husband there who she hardly knows G13 F#7 There's a patched up dream for a winter rose Fmaj7 E E(b9) There's a soft touch finally come to blows outroVerse 2:
A/E Faug There's a man with a medal but he'll never sleep F#m A7/G There are guns in his head, they say the war was cheap D F#7-13 There are heaped up dreams on the mounds of slag Bm7 G#7-13 There are moped up tears as the hours drag C#m7 F#13 There's a suitcase gone and there's an empty drawer Bm7 E There's a broken cup lying on the floor
