Pink Floyd - The Gunner's Dream (Waters)
F F+ Am F F G Am
F F+
Floating down through the clouds
Am/C F
Memories come rushing up to meet me now.
F
In the space between the heavens
G F
And in the corner of some foreign field,
F Am F
I had a dream,
F
I had a dream.
F F+
Goodbye Max, goodbye Ma.
Am/C F
After the service when you're walking slowly to the car
F G
And the silver in her hair shines in the cold November air,
Am Fmaj7 G/F F
You hear the tolling bell, and touch the silk in your lapel,
F G Am
And as the tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band,
F G
You take her frail hand and hold on to the dream.
F F+ Am F G F G Am G F G/F F G F F Am F Am
F F+
A place to stay, enough to eat,
Am F
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street.
F G
Where you can speak out loud about your doubts and fears,
Am
And what's more no-one ever disappears,
Fmaj7
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.
F G
You can relax on both sides of the tracks,
Am F G7/F
And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control,
F G
And everyone has recourse to the law,
F F Am
And no-one kills the children anymore.
F F
No-one kills the children anymore.
F G F G Am G
Night after night, going round and round my brain,
F G F
His dream is driving me insane___________________.
F
In the corner of some foreign field,
G
The gunner sleeps tonight.
Am F G/F
What's done is done.
F G
We cannot just write off his final scene.
F F Am
Take heed of his dream,
F Am
Take heed.
