  G
They disembarked in 45
C                      C
And no-one spoke and no-one smiled
    D                            G
There were to many spaces in the line.
 G                         C
Gathered at the cenotaph
  C
All agreed with the hand on heart

To sheath the sacrificial Knifes.

She stands upon Southampton dock

With her handkerchief

And her summer frock clings
                       G
To her wet body in the rain.
G                   C
In quiet desperation knuckles
C
White upon the slippery reins

She bravely waves the boys goodbye again.

Uuuuh! Maggie what have you done?

We spent what they had made.
