Christy Moore – Minds Locked Shut (Guitar)

G                         C
It happened on a Sunday afternoon

G                             C
On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon

D                G
On a perfect day for walking.

G
There was gunshots, stones and bullets

C                              G
On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon

C
There was chaos, panic and death,

G            C
Disbelief upon the faces

C
Fear and bewilderment

G
The seconds seemed so long

C
They’re firing bullets at us

G                          C
It was not supposed to be like this

G         C
Awesome to behold

G
And then our minds locked shut

C
And then our minds locked shut

G
And then our minds locked shut

C
And then our minds locked shut

D   C
And there remains ..
