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 
C7M                      D 
And even now part of me flies over 
C7M 
Dresden at angels one five 
D      C7M 
Though they'll never fathom it behind my 
                           D 
Sarcasm 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 
C7M                      D       C7M 
When we came back from the war the banners and 
                         D 
Flags hung on everyone's door 
   C7M 
We danced and we sang in the street and 
                 D 
The church bells rang 
    G             C 
But burning in my heart 
   G                C 
My memory smoulders on
