Southampton Dock Chords & Lyrics - Pink Floyd

[F]They disembarked in 45
[B]and no one spoke and no one smiled..
There [C]were too many spaces in the [F]line..
[F]Gathered at the cenotaph..
[B]All agreed with the hand on heart..
[C]To sheath the sacrificial [F]knifes..

But now...

[F]She stands upon Southampton dock
with her [B]handkerchief and her summer frock..
[C]Clings to her wet body in the [F]rain..
[F]In quiet desperation knuckles
[B]white upon the slippery reins..
She [C]bravely waves the boys goodbye [F]again..

[B] , [Bmi] , [F]

[B]And still the dark stain spreads between her [F] , [C] , [F]shoulder blades..[C] , [F]
[B]A mute reminder of the [F] , [C] , [F]poppy fields and graves.. [C] , [F]
And [B]when the fight was [C]over we [F]spent what [C]they had [B]made..
But.. in the bottom of our hearts we felt the final [F]cut....
