The Gunner's Dream

	 
[Intro]

[Verse]
G             Gaug 
Floating down through the clouds 
Em/G                  C 
Memories come rushing up to meet me now. 
       G 
In the space between the heavens 
           D                             C 
And in the corner of some foreign field, 
        G      Em  C 
I had a dream, 
        G 
I had a dream.
[Chorus]
G            Gaug 
Goodbye Max, goodbye Ma. 
Em/G                          C 
After the service when you're walking slowly to the car 
        G                                D 
And the silver in her hair shines in the cold November air, 
    Em                         Cmaj7                  D/C     C 
You hear the tolling bell, and touch the silk in your lapel, 
    G                                  D                      Em 
And as the tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band, 
C                  D 
You take her frail hand and hold on to the dream.

[Verse]
G                Gaug 
A place to stay, enough to eat, 
Em                           C 
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street. 
              G                                    D 
Where you can speak out loud about your doubts and fears, 
                Em 
And what's more no-one ever disappears, 
                                    Cmaj7 
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door. 
G                D 
You can relax on both sides of the tracks, 
            Em                  C                      D7/C 
And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control, 
    G                            D 
And everyone has recourse to the law, 
    C                            G     Em 
And no-one kills the children anymore. 
C                                   G 
No-one kills the children anymore.
[Outro]
C             D          G         D        Em      D 
Night after night, going round and round my brain, 
    C        D            G 
His dream is driving me insane. 
       G 
In the corner of some foreign field, 
    D 
The gunner sleeps tonight. 
Em                     C    D/C 
What's done is done. 
   G                               D 
We cannot just write off his final scene. 
C                G       Em 
Take heed of his dream, 
C           Em 
Take heed.Pink Floyd - The Gunner's Dream (Waters)
