Pink Floyd – The Gunners Dream (Ukulele)

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+
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.
