Chords

Em
The West's asleep. Let England shake,

Em
weighted down with silent dead.

D         Gm    Am
I fear our blood won't rise again     

Em
rise again

Em
England's dancing days are done.

Em
Another day, Bobby, for you to come home

D               Gm    Am
Come and tell me       indifference 

Em
Won  won   won

Gm               D          D                A  
Smile, smile Bobby,         with your lovely mouth.

Gm               D          D                A  
Pack up your troubles,      let's head out

Gm               D          D                A  
to the fountain          of death & splash about, 

Gm                         
swim back  forth & laugh out loud,
Em
Em
until the day is ending,

Em
And the birds are silent 

D           Gm        Am
And  the   insects are courting

Am                                                   
by the shores  heavy stones are    

Em
falling.

Gm               D          D                A  
Smile, smile Bobby,         with your lovely mouth.

Gm               D          D                A  
Pack up your troubles,      let's head out

Gm               D          D                A  
to the fountain          of death & splash about, 

Gm                         
swim back  forth & laugh out loud,
Em
