Dulce Et Decorum Est chords by Matthew Ryan

MATTHEW RYAN :  DULCE ET DECORUM EST

 INTRO G
    G                  G/F#      Em
I'm riding on a train, well you know
C
Cute girl in an English hat
D
Why'd it have to rain like that?
       G                     G/F#    Em
And in pulling off her scarf I let go
   C
It floated like a wounded bird
    D
Her mouth the shape of Spanish words

          G       G/F#    Em
Well, you know I think I can
C
Vanish with the evening rust
D
Join the ghost that haunted us
          G      G/F#     Em
Well, you know I think I am
C
Heroic in a failing way
D
For some of us it goes that way


       G             G/F#     Em
And in another place while I slept
C
Nothing gave and nothing changed
D
Every day was more the same
     G             G/F#     Em
Once upon that hill we came to
   C
We stretched and leaned and threw some chairs
   D
The moonlight in your dark black hair


          G      G/F#    Em
Well, you know I think I can
C
Vanish with the evening rust
D
Join the ghost that haunted us
          G       G/F#    Em
Well, you know I think I am
C
Heroic in a failing way
D
For some of us it goes that way

C/G        Em            D
Dulce et decorum est, my dear
C/G                    Em                  C/G   D
It's sweet it's right, there's nothing for you here here


     G                     G/F#      Em
When someone lets you down you free fall
C
To that bigger hand around your wrist
D
You'll swear you never wanted this


          G       G/F#    Em
Well, you know I think I can
C
Vanish with the evening rust
D
Join the ghost that haunted us
          G       G/F#   Em
Well, you know I think I am
C
Heroic in a failing way
D
For some of us it goes that way

C/G       Em              D
Dulce et decorum est, my dear
C/G                    Em                      C/G   D
It's sweet it's right, there's nothing for you here here


        G                      G/F#     Em
Now I'm pouring something cold down my throat
C
And I'm thinking about you and me
D
Once we had a drink or two or three
          G                 G/F#     Em
But those cold and autumn stars refused
C
We were swimming in that frozen lake
D
Our eyes the sound that sirens make
G   G/F# Em  C   D         G   G/F# Em  C   D
